Long road to Suffrage


Women's Equality Day was started in 1971 by Bella Abzug to commemorate the passage of the 19th Amendment  which gave full voting rights to women in 1920.  That's right women have been able to vote for less than 100 years. The woman who started the suffrage movement would be proud to know that a woman can not only vote but hold office and be a viable candidate for president.
