100th Anniversary of Women's Right to Vote

August 26, 2020 is the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which granted women the right to vote. The actual wording of the amendment is: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." This amendment followed a decades-long struggle by suffragettes. Today, it seems like science fiction to imagine a time when women did not have the right to choose their governmental representatives, or vote for or against issues. This page honors those who worked to obtain this right, and serves as a reminder to value our rights.
