Election Day -

Today, as you know is election day. As a woman and Mom I was so proud to vote with the girls by my side. The 19th Amendment granted women the right to vote 100 years ago and this year marks that centennial anniversary. The 19th Amendment says, “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. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.”

“The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing and protecting women’s constitutional right to vote. This historic centennial offers an unparalleled opportunity to commemorate a milestone of democracy and to explore its relevance to the issues of equal rights today. The Women’s Vote Centennial Initiative, a collaboration of women-centered institutions, organizations, and scholars from across the US, works to ensure that this anniversary, and the 72-year fight to achieve it, are commemorated and celebrated throughout the United States.”

I also, drank my coffee out of my new favorite mug this morning. Gotta love Rosie the Riveter.
