    It’s named for the Labor movement. maybe you’re joking and I’m just dense but… yeah.

    “Beginning in the late 19th century, as the trade union and labor movements grew, diverse groups of trade unionists chose a variety of days on which to celebrate labor. In the United States, a September holiday called Labor Day was first proposed in the early 1880s.”
