Team — Happy Labor Day!

While we may take the day off, it’s important that we also take a moment to honor the achievements of the hard-working Americans that this holiday celebrates.

A five-day work week and eight-hour work days. Safety mandates. A minimum wage. Vacation time and health insurance. None of this would have been possible without the trailblazers in the American labor movement.

But we know that their hard-fought battle is still not won. And nothing changes without action.

We must continue demanding equal pay for equal work.

We must continue fighting for a living wage.

And we must continue protecting workers’ right to organize.

Team — Labor Day is a day to honor American workers and prove that we will continue standing with them in the fight for safety and fairness.

Let’s all take today to show our gratitude and pledge to never stop the fight for working families.

— Eric
