    The
    Solidarity Day
    marches were a
    pair of large political rallies, in support
    of organized labor, that took place in
    Washington, DC on September 19, 1981
    and August 31, 1991. Nearly 500,000 people
    took part in each march. These actions
    followed the
    PATCO
    strike and the resultant
    firing of 11,345 PATCO
    Union
    workers
    by President Reagan. This support button was made for and worn at the march.
