This is a perpetuated myth; a fallacy.
There is NO federal law or regulation that requires financial institutions (FIs) to be open on certain days or that prohibits them from closing for a specified number of consecutive days.
"The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (Pub. L. 102--242, 105 Stat. 2236) (FDICIA) was enacted on December 19, 1991. Section 228 of the FDICIA added a new section 42 to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1831r--1) (FDI Act) that imposes notice requirements on insured depository institutions that intend to close branches."
This law, however, is specific to "branch" closings which might have significant, long-term impact on local communities. As such, FIs are required to notify their prudential regulators and provide sufficient analysis and substantiation for such permanent closings.
For those who might disagree, please provide a regulatory citation for your position.
It's a matter of accessibility. People need to be able to have access to their money.

Banks do not close for more than three days in a row because people have banking that they need to get done. It is hard enough when banks are closed for three days.

None that I know. If consecutive holidays come up then banks can be closed. For example if Christmas is on a monday then the bank can be closed for 2 days Sunday and monday. After all employees of the bank too need their time with their families right :)
It depends on the country the bank is located in. In most places they will be open on Good Friday and that is a religious holiday and not a bank holiday. In some countries they have designed Good Friday as a holiday and they will be closed.
