No, Abraham Lincoln did not establish Thanksgiving, but he did play a significant role in its formalization as a national holiday. In 1863, Lincoln proclaimed the last Thursday in November as a day of "Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens." This proclamation aimed to unify the nation during the Civil War and encouraged Americans to give thanks for their blessings. Thanksgiving had been celebrated in various forms long before Lincoln's declaration.
