This paper explores the nature of syntactic labels in the Minimalist Program. It proposes that the labeling possibilities are less restricted than traditionally thought. It develops an account of head movement in which the labels of both the moving head and the constituent it targets project as the label of the new constituent. Such a Project Both account of head movement avoids the problems with the standard account, and can explain some of the restrictions on head movement.
