This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.

Basically, if Trump would turn over every top secret file to Russia, and plot with them to give them Alaska, there would be no punishment but Impeachment for it. He could order killing every POC in the US and we would have no recourse but impeachment. Not good situation.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

Sorry to all those stuck working today. The best way to honor them is by staying home and relaxing so we don’t encourage businesses to stay open. To those in jobs that are always necessary and rarely get a break: thank you for your sacrifice and service. We know many don’t get the day off.

the government is still on track to spend more this year than last. As we gather with friends and family, let’s also stand together. Labor Day is not only about enjoying a well-earned rest it’s about remembering the struggles and sacrifices that built this holiday in the first place.

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.
