Fifty stars. Thirteen stripes. The symbol of democracy known throughout the world.

On Flag Day 2021, the New Jersey State AFL-CIO celebrates Old Glory and the rights and freedoms it stands for.

The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness – good-paying jobs in a safe workplace and the right to organize so workers have a voice in their employment conditions.

Freedom from want, freedom to worship, freedom from fear and freedom to speak our minds – the solid middle-class life all American working families deserve.

On Flag Day 2021, and every day: Long may it wave!
