The 19th Amendment: Women's Suffrage

The 19th Amendment, ratified in 1920, granted women the right to vote in the United States. This was the result of a long and courageous fight by suffragists, who worked tirelessly for decades to achieve equality in voting rights.

The amendment states that the right to vote cannot be denied based on sex. The 19th Amendment was a significant milestone in the women's rights movement, empowering women to take part in democracy and have their voices heard.
