Celebrating Labor
It's been an exceptionally difficult couple of years for the American worker. Layoffs have become ubiquitous, and the unemployment rate stands at a record high. Though recent weeks have brought reductions in the number of new jobless claims, the overall number of Americans drawing unemployment benefits continues to rise.

When was Labor Day first celebrated, and why? Follow this link to learn more. |
