Happy Anniversary

Happy 88th Anniversary to the 19th Amendment!

Today, 88 years ago, the Secretary of State certified the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, giving women the right to vote.

Sometimes I find it hard to believe it was so recent. Other days, it feels like barely any time has passed.

Thank you to our suffragette sisters for starting the fight, and thanks to all our sisters still fighting it today.



(And H/T to My Improvisational Life for the reminder.)
