On Labor Day, we honor the generations of working people & labor unions who fought for rights we too often take for granted—safer workplaces, fair pay & benefits, and yes, even the weekend. But our work is far from done—Trump’s attacks on workers & unions make clear just how much we must defend.

Workers are reclaiming the term ‘Redneck.’ The word has roots in labor movements, where it was used as a term of honor by coal miners who wore red bandanas, and in a more self-conscious and even complimentary way by populist voters who adopted it as a badge of class pride.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

It's #LaborDay in the USA. On Sept. 5, 1882, tens of thousands of union laborers marched from New York City Hall to Union Square to protest deplorable working conditions. Their demands were for an 8-hour workday and safer working conditions. This is largely agreed to be the first Labor Day parade.
