HILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Thousands of union workers celebrated the Labor Day holiday with a parade and picnic in Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Council AFL-CIO hosted the 36th annual Tri-State Labor Day Parade and Family Celebration.

"Labor Day is a day for us to celebrate the wins that we have: secure retirement, wages, training opportunities, a voice on your job," said Danny Bauder, the president of the Philadelphia Council AFL-CIO.

Bauder said the AFL-CIO is comprised of 126 local unions. The council is working to educate union members ahead of the election season.

"We have so many opportunities to rebuild things. Rebuild schools, rebuild bridges, rebuild highways, expand broadband," he explained. "Things like that, that affect every single person in the city. Union or not, it's going to improve their quality of life."
