Peter J. McGuire Labor Day Landmark Act
This bill designates the Peter J. McGuire Memorial and Gravesite in Pennsauken, New Jersey, as the "Peter J. McGuire Memorial National Commemorative Site." It formally recognizes the site's historical significance as the resting place of Peter J. McGuire, a foundational labor leader who co-founded the American Federation of Labor and proposed Labor Day. The designation does not make the site part of the National Park System but allows for cooperative educational programs. The memorial, already listed on both New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places since 2018-2019, honors McGuire’s role in labor history.
