By the President of the United States of America<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Proclamation<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the earliest days of our American story, our Nation\u2019s future has been molded by the skill, determination, and unwavering resilience of the American worker.\u00a0 From the earliest settlers, who laid the foundations of a new Nation to the innovators who built our railroads, steel mills, and skyscrapers, America\u2019s greatness has always rested in the strength of its workforce.\u00a0 This Labor Day, we honor the proud legacy of America\u2019s workforce \u2014 and we pay tribute to the unbreakable spirit that keeps it strong nearly 250 years later.<\/p>\n

The American worker is the beating heart of our economy, the foundation of our strength, and the living embodiment of the American Dream.\u00a0 In every honest citizen lives the instinct to work, build, and create \u2014 an instinct seen in the welder, the nurse, the trucker, the farmer, and the machinist.\u00a0 Every job, every shift, every hour worked by millions of talented patriots today adds another stone to the foundation of our prosperity.<\/p>\n

Tragically, in recent decades, a corrupt political class allowed our manufacturing base to decline.\u00a0 Our jobs were shipped to distant shores, our industries decimated, and our communities weakened, all while building up foreign competitors at the expense of American workers and families.<\/p>\n

Those days ended on January 20, 2025.\u00a0 Every day, my Administration is restoring the dignity of labor and putting the American worker first.\u00a0 We are making it easier to buy American and hire American, breathing new life into our manufacturing cities, and securing fair trade deals that protect our jobs and reward our productivity.\u00a0 We are amassing hundreds of billions of dollars in tariff revenue and ensuring that every product of American craftsmanship is appreciated for its true value in overseas markets.\u00a0 Under my leadership, we are bringing jobs back to America \u2014 and those jobs are going to American-born workers.<\/p>\n

From our heartland to our great coastal cities, once-forgotten communities are stirring with new opportunity.\u00a0 Workers are keeping more of what they earn, and new jobs are being created at a record pace.\u00a0 As President, I will always defend the interests of every citizen who works with integrity, honors the rule of law, and strives to secure a brighter future for themselves, their families, and future generations of Americans.<\/p>\n

This Labor Day, we renew our pledge to protect American jobs and defend the dignity of American labor \u2014 and we proudly acknowledge the vital role that our workers play in our past, present, and glorious American future.<\/p>\n

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim September 1, 2025, as Labor Day.\u00a0 I call upon all public officials and people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities that honor the contributions and resilience of working Americans.<\/p>\n

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-eighth day of August, in the year of our Lord two\u00a0thousand\u00a0twenty-five, and of the Independence of the United\u00a0States of\u00a0America the two\u00a0hundred and fiftieth.<\/p>\n
