Obama, Solis, and Trumka to Visit Milwaukee for Labor Day

LDscfl3
On Labor Day, AFL-CIO officers will join thousands of working people in events across the country to call for good jobs and a strong, middle-class economy. 

President Obama and Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis will join AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka in a massive Labor Day celebration and rally in Milwaukee.  An estimated 10,000 people are expected to celebrate Labor Day at the Milwaukee Summerfest Grounds!

Milwaukee is not the only area that gets to celebrate the 2010 Labor Day in style.  Events are taking place throughout the state.  Enjoy your hard earned day off and check out a celebration near you.
