Worker's Memorial Day poster produced by the US Dept. of Labor in 2010. |
Take the time to remember the battles men and women have fought for things such as....
...the eight hour workday...
...weekends...
...child labor laws...
...safety and health regulations...
It is because we didn't have these (and many other) laws in the past, that workers died in the course of their labor.
And remember to fight to keep worker safety and health (and other worker's rights) laws on the books against an onslaught by reactionary right wingers who would dismantle the safety net in order to benefit those in power.
That is the end of my soapboxing for the day.
