Labor Day, observed on the first Monday of September in honor of working people all across America, is a time for some well-deserved time off for the nation’s laborers. Today’s Doodle celebrates Labor Day by depicting a wide range of professions—from farming, to construction, to teaching.
A time-honored tradition dating back to before 1894, when President Grover Cleveland made Labor Day a federal holiday, New York City’s Central Labor Union organized a march in early September 1882 that ended in a Manhattan park with an evening of speeches, dancing, and fireworks. Oregon was the first state to legislate its own Labor Day in 1887, with many other states soon following suit.
So to all you working folks: whether you’re planning a long weekend at the beach or hosting a family barbecue, make sure to take it easy and enjoy yourself.
Happy Labor Day!
