President Obama’s Open Letter to America’s Hardworking Men and Women

President Barack Obama celebrated Labor Day by publishing an open letter “to America’s hardworking men and women,” which was “shared through unions and labor, civil rights, and community organizations across the country.”

In a stout defense of working Americans and labor unions, the president told Americans they “should be able to get ahead, retire with dignity, and leave something behind for the next generation.”

Read the full text of the president’s letter:

Hrafnkell Haraldsson

Hrafnkell Haraldsson, a social liberal with leanings toward centrist politics has degrees in history and philosophy. His interests include, besides history and philosophy, human rights issues, freedom of choice, religion, and the precarious dichotomy of freedom of speech and intolerance. He brings a slightly different perspective to his writing, being that he is neither a follower of an Abrahamic faith nor an atheist but a polytheist, a modern-day Heathen who follows the customs and traditions of his Norse ancestors. He maintains his own blog, A Heathen's Day, which deals with Heathen and Pagan matters, and Mos Maiorum Foundation www.mosmaiorum.org, dedicated to ethnic religion. He has also contributed to NewsJunkiePost, GodsOwnParty and Pagan+Politics.
