Commemorate those who labor, let us also remember and celebrate the entrepreneurs who drive renewal and progress—creating the new labor and employment opportunities of tomorrow
Among American holidays, Labor Day is probably the one in most need of an update. The idea of a “labor day holiday” was conceived in the 1880s by union labor leaders who sought recognition for the social and economic achievements of American workers. Finally in 1894, U.S. Congress voted to establish Labor Day as a national holiday to celebrate workers and their contributions to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of the country.
