"But it is not enough to just celebrate this day or give thanks to the suffragettes. We must follow their examples by demanding action on the:

✔️ Voting Rights Advancement Act
✔️ Native American Voting Rights Act
✔️ Paycheck Fairness Act
✔️ Violence Against Women Act

It is also critical to acknowledge that while the Nineteenth Amendment made history by giving white women the right to vote, it left out women of color who continued to face ballot access discrimination for decades and who were equal actors in the suffrage movement."
