This Labor Day Weekend, it is important to reflect upon our achievements and to spend time with those near and dear to us - our friends and family.

On this holiday, we celebrate the uniquely American ideal of hard work and perseverance to make a better life for our families.

I'm incredibly proud to not only be an American, but a Marylander as well. I will continue to fight for the hard working men and women of this state.

Happy Labor Day!
