Does Chase get Juneteenth off?
Chase Bank official holiday schedule
Chase’s official 2025 holiday schedule lists Juneteenth (Thursday, June 19, 2025) as a day when U.S. offices are generally closed. The same PDF includes other federal holidays like Memorial Day (May 26, 2025), Independence Day (July 4, 2025), Labor Day (September 1, 2025), Columbus Day (October 13, 2025), Veterans Day (November 11, 2025), Thanksgiving (November 27, 2025), and Christmas (December 25, 2025).
Juneteenth as a federal holiday
Juneteenth National Independence Day became a federal holiday on June 17, 2021, after President Joe Biden signed the bill. Banks, post offices, and most federal agencies observe it. ABC7 Chicago’s guide confirmed that major banks including Chase would be closed on June 19, 2025.
When Chase started closing for Juneteenth
Chase announced in 2021 that its branches would close for Juneteenth beginning in 2022. The 2025 schedule continues that policy. The pattern is consistent: every June 19, Chase branches are shut, though ATMs and digital banking remain available.

What is open on Juneteenth
The stock market (NYSE and NASDAQ) remains open on Juneteenth. Most retail stores, grocery chains, and restaurants operate regular hours. CBS News notes that UPS and FedEx pickups may be limited but delivery continues in many areas.
The pattern: banks and government services shut, but private-sector businesses largely stay open. For anyone needing cash, ATMs are the fallback.
Can I withdraw $5000 from Chase Bank?
Chase ATM withdrawal limits
Chase ATMs typically have a daily withdrawal limit between $500 and $3,000, depending on account type. A $5,000 withdrawal usually exceeds the ATM limit. GoBankingRates reports that standard Chase debit cards cap ATM withdrawals at $3,000 per day for most accounts.
Branch withdrawal limits
Inside a branch, Chase can process withdrawals well above $5,000, but on a holiday like Juneteenth, the branch is closed. CBS News coverage reminds readers that in-branch services are unavailable on federal holidays.
How to make large withdrawals
- Before the holiday: Visit a branch on June 18 to withdraw cash or get a cashier’s check.
- ATM alternative: Use multiple ATM cards or increase your limit in advance via Chase’s mobile app.
- Mobile deposit: Deposit checks using Chase’s mobile app — it works on holidays.
Customers who need $5,000 in cash on Juneteenth cannot get it from a Chase ATM (limit $3,000) or a closed branch. The fix: withdraw before June 19 or use an alternative bank with a higher ATM limit.

Why are people protesting Chase Bank?
Fossil fuel funding protests
Activist groups, including the Climate Action and Resilience Initiative (CARI), have organized demonstrations outside Chase branches in multiple cities, targeting the bank’s financing of fossil fuel projects. CBS News mentioned these protests in the context of the Juneteenth closure, though the report did not provide direct speaker quotes.
CARI and local citizen actions
CARI campaigns accuse Chase of committing billions to oil and gas expansion while publicly claiming net-zero goals. The timing of Juneteenth — a day celebrating freedom — amplifies the message that Chase’s investments contradict its sustainability promises. No official Chase response to the protests was available at press time.
Chase’s environmental policies
Chase has pledged to align its financing with net-zero emissions by 2050. Yet according to the GoBankingRates report, activist groups argue the bank continues to fund new fossil fuel projects, making the Juneteenth closure a symbolic flashpoint.
Protest momentum could escalate if Chase’s 2025 environmental disclosures show continued fossil fuel financing. Shareholders and climate activists are both watching the bank’s mid-year report due in July 2025.
