Starting May 18, 2020 and continuing for 100 days, we are recognizing 100 women who inspire us to vote. Ending on the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution, this series celebrates women who fought for this right to become an amendment and others since who have followed in their footsteps. Women in all walks of life over the last 100 years have inspired us in many ways through their actions in their respective fields. Voting is something shared by all since, so by recognizing these inspirational women, we will unveil their stories (H&RSTORY). Our goal is to help the current generation of women voters understand how this Amendment has changed American way of life since its official ratification and etching into American law.
