Labor Day 2011

What does Labor Day mean to you?

In neighboring South Plainfield, it is marked with a parade celebrating the American worker. The parade starts at 10 a.m.

Here in the city, we may be wondering how the city's seven bargaining units are faring. As the municipal budget has become harder to manage, city officials have been trying to wrest concessions from the unions.

As always, Labor Day signals the unofficial end of summer, a time for parties and picnics before the vacation season ends and school begins.

Whatever your thoughts or activities today, Plaintalker wishes you a happy Labor Day!
