When does Thanksgiving day occur each year?

On October 6, 1941, the House of Representatives passed a joint
resolution declaring the last Thursday in November to be the legal
Thanksgiving Day. The Senate amended the resolution establishing
the holiday as the fourth Thursday, which took into consideration
those years when November has five Thursdays. The House agreed to
the amendment, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the
resolution on December 26, 1941. This established the fourth
Thursday in November as the Federal Thanksgiving Day holiday.
