Did you know that Labor Day began as a labor movement, and that one of the first celebrations was a parade in New York City in 1882? After several states adopted their own Labor Day, Congress finally enacted a federal law in 1894 establishing it as a federal holiday. So how do you celebrate American labor on this fine day? Whether your day is filled with grilling and chilling, or an outdoor day with family and friends, we wish you all a safe, happy Labor Day!
