Matthew McGuire first thought of a day to honor labor in 1882 while serving at the Central Labor Union of New York, as Secretary of the union representing local 344 The International Association Of Machinrst In Patterson NJ
Several municipal ordinances were inacted in 1885 and 18986.
The first state law was IN OREGON ON FEBRUARY 21 1887.
The first labor day was September 5th 1882 in New York city. In 1884 it was the first Monday in September. on June 28th 1894 Congress made the first day of September a national holiday
In 1909 the sunday before Labor Day was adopted as labor sunday and was dedicated to the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement. This is how we as fellow workers get a holiday. Whether you belong to a union or not you can thank your union friends for your own holiday. Labor Day.
Have a happy and safe holiday
