The origin of Labor Day in the United States

Labor Day is celebrated on the first Monday of September in the United States, and Labor Day is known as Labor Day in English, which commemorates the social and economic achievements of workers.

The origins of Labor Day in the United States can be traced back to the late 19th century, when American workers faced extremely harsh working conditions, working 12-14 hours a day or more, and receiving only a pittance wage. They had to form unions and fight against the factory bosses for their rights. After a long struggle, on September 5, 1894, the U.S. Congress passed a "Labor Day Act", and in this way, the United States became the first country in the world to establish Labor Day.

Now, people in the United States usually have a day off on this day, and some places hold street parades and festivals and other celebrations such as parades, music, fireworks, sporting events, and so on. The most representative of these are the "Labor Day Superstar Parade" in Chicago and the "Siccades Parade" in New York State. These celebrations celebrate the labor and dedication of American workers in the same festive way, and represent a national consensus on American labor and social justice.
