Declaring May Labor History Month is a good idea that I hope my fellow members vote AYE to when the time to vote comes.

seems unnecessary. Also Workers Memorial Day implies your remembering workers who died, which seems weird. Also there's already a labor day holiday. Aren't the contributions of working people mentioned in history books during the school year?

This has my support, just wanting to also highlight an EO President TM made last month to supplement this:

Quote from: Executive Order 47-021
Executive Order
Federal Recognition of International Workers' Day

WHEREAS, the Haymarket affair, which took place on May 1st, 1886 in Chicago; was a significant event in the fight for workers' rights in this region

WHEREAS, many countries around the world commemorate May 1st and said event as a celebration of the fight for workers' rights across the world

BE IT RESOLVED, that as President of Atlasia, I hereby recognize, commemorate and honor May 1st as "International Workers' Day."


X President Tmthforu94

Note: This executive order was taken with permission from Tack50, sponsor of a resolution being debated in the Lincoln Council

With a majority of representatives voting to pass this bill, the vote will close in 24 hours and any Representative who wishes to change his or her vote must do so during that interval.
