Women's Equality Day. This day is proclaimed each year by the President of the U.S. to commemorate the granting of the right to vote to women on August 26, 1920, when the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution was certified. The amendment was first introduced in 1878. Every president has published a proclamation for Women's Equality Day since 1971 when legislation introduced in Congress by Bella Abzug was enacted designating August 26 of each year as Women's Equality Day. |
