Ninety-three years ago today, the 19th Amendment went into effect, giving women the right to vote.I am so very pleased that women flexing their feminism, their power to participate in representative government, have so powerfully affected the outcome of recent elections.
We owe a tremendous vote of thanks to those 'Iron Jawed Angels' who struggled so that women today can vote. Now to honor those brave, determined women, we need to guarantee that women are also paid the same as men for the same jobs, the same work, and that we do not lose ground on our reproductive rights as well.
