Labor Day isn’t just a holiday — it’s a reminder of workers who fought together for the rights we have today: the 8-hour day, healthcare, safer workplaces, and fair wages. 🪧🔥 Every gain was won through solidarity.

Graduate workers are part of that story. Our teaching, research, and work keeps the university running — and like generations of workers before us, we know change comes when we stand together. 💪📚

This Labor Day, we celebrate the victories of the past and commit to the fights ahead. Because when we fight, we win.

Solidarity today, tomorrow, and always 👊
