Hi John,

At marches and rallies, picnics and parades, Labor Day is workers’ day.

It’s a celebration of our history because workers built this country. It’s a celebration of the work we do every day because workers make this country run.

And it’s a celebration of the power we have when we come together in a union—the power to take back our country for working people, not billionaires.

Will you join us this Workers’ Labor Day and show everyone what workers deserve? Find an event near you.

#WorkersDeserve the freedom, fairness and security that comes with a union contract. That’s why every organizing campaign, every strike, is an act of hope. We bet our solidarity and our collective power that working people can live a better life—one where we don’t have to struggle to afford food, housing and health care; where no one is targeted for who they are or where they were born; and where we can raise children and retire in dignity.

And that hope in dark times, that vision for a better, fairer future—the working people of America believe in it, too. Did you know more than 70% of Americans and nearly 9 in 10 people younger than 30 support unions? That’s because workers understand that the future depends on our collective solidarity. Workers know we are stronger together.

Working people are ready to fight for a better future: In the streets and on the shop floor, in union halls and the halls of Congress, workers are rising up and fighting for the economy and the country we all deserve.

Join us, and find a Workers Deserve event during our Workers' Labor Day week of action near you.

This Labor Day is Workers’ Labor Day. And we’re going to show the billionaires who we are and how we fight. We will stand together to speak up. Speak out. Demand more. Workers deserve better—and we will take our country back!

In solidarity,

Team AFL-CIO
