"Labor Day is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity and well-being of our country. Because of its history, it is approriate, therefore, that the nation pay tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation's strength, freedom, and leadership -- the American worker."

Thank you to all those who have been such an important contribution to our nation being the greatest nation. Even in times of economic troubles, unemployment, and living in one of the most difficult times in the history of our nation, we can all still be proud to be an American! Let's celebrate this day with taking time to rest, being involved with our families, celebrating with festive parades, and having hope for the future, despite our circumstances. PTL
