To the best of my knowledge, the Assumption has been a Holy Day of Obligation since 1950. It was in 1950 that Pope Pius XII defined the Assumption as a dogma of the faith. It has always been believed, but it was never defined before 1950. When the Holy Father raised it to a dogma, I assume that he also made it a Holy Day of Obligation. My A Catholic Dictionary was published in 1957 so it mentions the Assumption along with the fact that it is a Holy Day of Obligation.
Roman Catholic AnswerBecause it has never been so designated by the Holy See as such.
