When Democrats, Republicans are kind-of for labor

I heard no mention of it besides my answer to someone who had asked me, "What is today?"

I appreciate that the Green Party recognizes May Day in support of labor -- period. I believe the Democratic Party supports mainly American labor if organized into a likely voting bloc -- i.e. labor unions.

That's no shade on labor unions -- just the Dems' alignment to organized labor if the benefactor of its members' collective vote in elections.
​
Labor as a voting bloc can be seen from outfits aligned with the Republican Party, too. Dave Sunday (D.A., York), for example, won the PA Republican primary for attorney general recently. Besides the PA Republican Party, endorsements for his stauncher rival Craig Williams (state rep., Delaware) came from a York County police lodge and the PA Sheriffs Association PAC.
