Default Conditional formatting does not follow value when list is sorted

I have a set of dates and times in a schedule that are compared to holidays
and conditionally formatted (changes text color) if the date is a holiday.
There are a number of these schedules in the entire sheet.

I copy all the dates below the schedules and then sort them by date and
time. Before sorting the dates reflect the correct formatting (holidays
remain blue). After sorting the holidays no longer have the correct
formatting. The values in the cells are now in sequential order as they
should be but the fromatting stays in its original cell and does not move
with the cell value. Now non-holidays are formatted in blue.

My conditional format is: Formula is =$Q$7=TRUE
where cell Q7 compares the date to the holidays.

Is there any way to have the conditional formatting follw the cell value?
