Create a National Holiday on August 26 for Woman's Vote Day, in honor of the day women got the right to vote in 1920.

Created by S.G. on February 22, 2015

It would be amazing for all people, especially young girls, to know that on August 26 in 1920, women fought hard and won the right to vote, along side men. This holiday would serve as a conversation starter for us all to meditate upon just how short a time ago women got the right to vote, and how important this is in the history of women coming to a societal place of equanimity with men. This is important, for girls, for women, for men, and giving us, as a society, a bridge to that time and to those women who were so brave to change one of the most basic things about how we see government and how we see women.
