35% Celebrate Labor Day to Honor Working Americans
Monday, September 02, 2013
For most Americans, Labor Day is not a very important holiday, but one-in-three still view it as a celebration of the working man as it was originally intended.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 20% of American Adults regard Labor Day as one of the nation's most important holidays. Nearly as many (19%) consider it one of the least important holidays. For 57%, it's somewhere in between. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
The national survey of 1,000 Adults was conducted on August 26-27, 2013 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
