Thanksgiving is always on the fourth Thursday of the month. Most of the time, the fourth Thursday is also the last Thursday. This year, the fourth Thursday falls on the 23, so there is a fifth Thursday, the 30. Thanksgiving must always happen between November 22 and November 28, that is, the fourth Thursday.

The holiday of Thanksgiving was established by Abe Lincoln and set up every year to be the 4th Thursday in November. That's why it is not on the last week, as we have 5 weeks this year for November.
