Today, we recognize union members and labor activists who fought for the rights workers now have. The forty hour work week, weekends, sick leave, paid holidays, safe working conditions, and much more. None of it was given. It was fought for by working people. And the fight continues.

This nation was founded on a union, and on this Labor Day, we’re reminded that the American worker, not Washington, has led to our prosperity. As one of the few pro-union GOP congressmen at the time, I’d rather celebrate the workers than the paperwork signers who gave us off today. (Link below)

Chemotherapy is usually standard treatment for cancers. But they are not necessarily tailored to each patient. Vaccines are a game changer b/c they can be applied to all cancers, since they involve genetic mutations. They harness the patient's own immune system. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The Moderna cancer vaccine offers hope — now we must speed up personalized therapies

A positive trial holds promise for treating people with cancer. More research is needed to get effective vaccines to the clinic.

The labor movement gave us weekends, 8 hour work days, and ensured that our kids can go to school rather than work. Honored to fight for unions every day. Happy Labor Day to all those who have fought for a fairer economy in the richest country in the world.

This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.

My taxes already pay for cops, congresspeople, mail carriers, sanitation workers, fighter pilots, and the president to eat junk food, why should I care about SNAP recipients doing the same? Oh because the 1% need to keep struggling people fighting each other so they can carry on bleeding us all dry

FUN FACTS: Mormons believe the Garden of Eden was located in Jackson County, Missouri, near the city of Independence. But that's what you get when your religion is based on the lies of a shameless conman. The Mormon religion was founded in 1830. I don't even have furniture that new!

I don’t think a Hollywood script writer could even have dreamt up this ending for Sienna. From broken and alone on the streets of Thailand to her family life in Wales. All she needed was love ❤️

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

Thou shalt not trust A SINGLE WORD from corporate media talking heads who LOOK AWAY while the president is CERTIFIABLY INSANE.

Dolly Parton logged a combined total of 115 years of union membership. Throughout her working life, the “9 to 5” singer/songwriter carried the union cards of two major unions: The American Federation of Musicians Local 257 in Nashville — for 58 years. SAG-AFTRA — for 57 years. HAPPY LABOR DAY!

Opinion | Celebrate Dolly Parton's working-class solidarity

John Nichols: She carried two union cards, sang Woody Guthrie songs and mocked the bosses in "9 to 5."
