As far as I'm aware, the United States has only one religious holiday that is a Federal holiday - Christmas Day. You get Milk Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. The mailmen get a few other days off as well, like Veterans' Day and Columbus Day, but that's about it.
However, don't forget that the US may be religious as a nation, but our government is rabidly secular (perhaps for that reason). If they tried to make Easter Monday a holiday you would see a massive outcry among other groups, though of course no one bats an eyelash here in NY if Jewish people are just absent on Jewish holidays (which usually comes out to half the month of September, a few days in December and then a few more days around Easter - I don't think they take off for Shavuot or Purim, though).

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Nothing, they are federal holidays still because of strong unions, not religion

If people did not care, disestablishmentarianism (and its antithesis) would not exist.

Thanksgiving was a purely federal institution. FDR dictated the date it's celebrated

That distinction would be an almost wholly Roman Catholic (or possibly Greek Orthodox) one.

It's funny how you use "federal" to mean "mandated by national government".
