QUOTES FROM A FEW POLITICIANS IN REFERENCE TO THE LABOR MOVEMENT:

"If I were an employee, a working man...or a wage-earner of any sort, I undoubtedly would join a Union of my trade. I believe in the Union and I believe that all men are morally bound to help to the extent of their powers in the common interests advanced by the Union."

........................................................... - Theodore Roosevelt

"All that harms labor is treason to America. No line can be drawn between these two. If any man tells you he loves America, yet he hates labor, he is a liar. If a man tells you he trusts America, yet fears labor, he is a fool."

...........................................................- Abraham Lincoln

"We need Unions to make sure that working people have a legitimate and consistent voice."

...........................................................- Senator Orrin Hatch
