City Club of EugeneIn 1958, President Dwight D. Eisenhower declared May 1 to be Law Day in the United States. Since before that time, the first of May has been celebrated in parts of the world as May Day or International Workers Day: a day to remember the struggles of workers for better wages and working conditions, including the eight-hour workday. The official theme for Law Day 2026, set for May 1, is “The Rule of Law and the American Dream,” focusing on how a stable legal system underpins the freedoms and opportunities for people to pursue their goals in the U.S., with various legal organizations hosting contests and events around this theme.
