Trump admin 'reclaiming' Labor Day through America First policies: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer on honoring the American worker and how the Trump administration's economic success has benefitted people across the country.

For the last 250 years, our blue-collar men and women have laid the foundations of our country. They’ve paved roads, built bridges and raised the skyscrapers that shape our landscape. Their tireless efforts continue to drive progress and prosperity.

This Labor Day, we celebrate the American workers who took a vast expanse of new frontier and carved a path for communities and industries to thrive. For two and a half centuries, these laborers have sustained our businesses and maintained the very basis of our success: the family. 

As a mom of twin girls and a new grandmother, I understand that the reason behind our 9-to-5 is the people we gather with around the kitchen table. Our wage earners aren’t just punching the clock to stay busy. Their work has a purpose: supporting the next generation.

That’s why we applaud the work ethic and pride that the American worker applies to their job, because they’re not just growing the economy – they are proving the American Dream is alive and well for future generations. 

TRUMP’S ‘ONE BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL’ COULD CEMENT ECONOMIC LEGACY FOR DECADES

At the Department of Labor, we are going to keep our foot on the gas, accelerating into the Golden Age of America. Prosperity is on the horizon, with real median weekly earnings at their highest level since the last time President Donald Trump was in office.

We are doing what it takes to ensure that as new, mortgage-paying jobs are being created, skilled workers are ready and able to fill them. Putting native-born workers first in that effort, we’ve already witnessed an increase in native-born employment by 2,462,000 since January. 

To keep driving this progress, President Trump tasked the Labor Department with a mission to Make America Skilled Again. That’s the drum I’m going to keep beating. It will require time and effort, but it’s going to yield dividends for our workers and their families.

As we create new opportunities for the American worker, I’ve been on the ground, talking to folks around the country whose lives inform our policies. I’m finding out what they need at the federal level and how we can best serve them in Washington.
