New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

As you get ready to enjoy your #LaborDay weekend, remember that the holiday, and the concept of a 2-day weekend itself are a direct result of America’s labor movement. In this era of out of control wealth inequality, unions are how we tip the scales back in workers’ favor.
