19th Amendment

Copied from: http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_amendments_11-27.html

Passed by Congress June 4, 1919. Ratified August 18, 1920.
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 19^th amendment provided women the right to vote making it illegal to deny any citizen the right to vote. The movement that prompted this amendment was known as the Suffrage movement lead by women like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

Amazing how often people feel this way about most things, women voting, having equal pay with men, gay rights. But, evolving presidents make the difference by supplying people their natural rights to even the playing field.
