Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis delivers a special message to Americans this Labor Day.
“Labor Day has always been what it was originally intended to be: a day to celebrate the contributions that working men and women have made to the strength and prosperity of the country,” Solis said in a video message posted on the Department of Labor website.
On this symbolic holiday for American workers all across the nation, Solis shares what she says she’s seen and heard from workers in her travels during the past year, including steps the administration is taking to stimulate the economy.
“I’ve heard their stories of hardship and success,” Solis said. “You can be certain that, like the President, I will not stop working until every American is back on their feet—and we have fulfilled our mission to provide ‘good and safe jobs for everyone.’”
Secretary Solis does not have an easy job, but she makes us all proud!
