90th Anniversary of Women's Rights to Vote - 19th Amendment

On Wednesday, August 26, America celebrated the 90th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment which prohibits each state and the federal government from denying any citizen the right to vote based on that citizen's sex.
The 19th amendment was ratified August 18th, 1920, when Tennessee became the 36th state to approve a woman's right to vote.
