Women's Suffrage

Section 1: 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.


Section 2: Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.



This amendment is what gave women the right to vote. Thought all US citizens were given rights, women were still considered second class citizens. This amendment gave women the ability to stand up and become the strong women that we are today.

Women's suffrage: an interaction

This is an interactive website to explore events in during the campaigns for women's suffrage. Please take a look. I found this site very informative and I hope all women will feel the same way...and maybe some men too.
