Frances Perkins served as United States Secretary of Labor from 1933 to 1945. She visited Homestead in July 1933 to discuss New Deal policy. Local authorities barred her from meeting with aggrieved steelworkers in nearby Frick Park. Undeterred, she moved the assembly to federal property here, at the former United States post office.
