Ruben Gallego released the following statement in celebration of Labor Day: "On Labor Day, let's celebrate the hardworking men and women of America and reflect on the tremendous progress that the labor movement has made to improve the lives of working families. "Let's thank those who sacrificed and who sometimes were threatened or fired for standing up for the idea that Americans should have the ability to work hard and provide for their families, and do so with dignity and security. "And let's commit to keep fighting - for a higher minimum wage, for policies that will allow hardworking immigrants to come out of the shadows, and for fair trade agreements that will protect American workers and grow our economy. "Those who are able to work should be able to find good jobs with safe working conditions and fair pay that allow them to take care of their families and improve their quality of life. That's the American Dream that we celebrate this and every Labor Day."
