Today is Labor Day... a celebration of the American worker. This morning, Erie held its annual Labor Day parade.

Hundreds of union members and supporters marched north on State Street to Perry Square, showing solidarity for workers' rights.

U.S. Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer joined Erie's Labor Day parade with Teamsters Local 397, not only to celebrate America's workers, but to mark the start of the nation's 250th birthday festivities.
