Labor Hall of Honor
The United States Department of Labor Hall of Honor is in the Frances Perkins Building, 200 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, D.C. It is a monument to honor Americans who have made a major contribution toward their country's workers; for example, by improving working conditions, wages, and quality of life.
First proposed during the John F. Kennedy administration in 1962 as the Hall of Fame, the Hall of Honor was opened in 1988. Honorees are selected each year by a panel inside the Department of Labor. All have been recognized posthumously with the exceptions of 2012 inductee Dolores Huerta and 2024 inductee President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. President Biden is the first living and the first current president inducted. President Reagan was inducted posthumously during the Trump administration in 2018. https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/osec/osec20241216-0 President Biden was honored as part of the ceremony designating the Frances Perkins Homestead in Maine as a National Historic Landmark under the authority granted by the Antiquities Act. https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1207/secretary-haaland-joins-president-biden-as-he-designates-frances-perkins-national-monument.htm
