Labor Day: A Brief History

Celebrated every year on the first Monday of September, Labor Day honors the American workforce. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, “It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.”

But how and when did it begin?

It started at the local level between 1885-1886, with various states passing pursuing legislation to make the holiday official. New York took the lead; however, the first state to enact the law was Oregon in 1887.

Other states soon followed, namely Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York. Soon after, Connecticut, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania joined the movement. It wasn’t until June 28, 1894 that Congress made Labor Day a legal holiday, after an additional 23 states had already begun celebrating.

Oddly enough, it was actually a Tuesday that marked the first nationwide Labor Day Holiday -- September 5, 1882; however, on June 28, 1894, President Grover Cleveland signed legislation reserving the first Monday in September as the official holiday.
