Labor Day Celebration for American Working Families

A Holiday Celebration and Rally

Festivities will include an annual Labor Day bike ride, rally, historical exhibits and presentations, music and performances, special guest speeches and tours of Chicago’s Pullman neighborhood. President Barack Obama will be the guest of honor.

The program will feature music, food and guest speakers.

Speakers will celebrate the achievements of American working families, and commemorate past and ongoing struggles for a union wage, the rights of citizenship, healthy workplaces, strong communities, civil rights, women’s rights, immigrant rights, and service jobs that are good jobs.

Speakers will rally for a better world for American working families–equal opportunity for all men and women, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation through the Employee Free Choice Act, healthcare reform, education reform, and “green jobs.”

The event will provide access to services for working families: Get free advice from labor lawyers and representatives from the Chicago public school system, the Chicago Department of Public Health, labor unions, community organizations and others.
