Happy Labor Day, John!
Today, we are reminded that workers have always been the backbone of this country. Here are just a few things for which we have the labor movement to thank:
- Weekends
- The 40-hour work week
- Health care & sick leave
- Workplace safety protections
- Minimum wage
For all of these contributions and more, we owe working families an economy with more and better jobs, higher wages, and increased safety for every worker – especially as corporate greed runs rampant, and corporations continue exploiting loopholes to undermine workers’ rights at every turn.
You can count on me to always fight for a future that ensures a full day's pay for an honest day's work, fair treatment in the workplace, equal opportunity, and shared prosperity for everyone.
Thanks for being in this fight with me, John.
Best,
Jared
