The Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution gave women the right to vote and was adopted on August 26, 1920. Its original text, in the form of a Congressional resolution in the National Archives at Washington, proposed an amendment extending suffrage to women and declared that the right of citizens of the United States to vote could not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex, while granting Congress power to enforce the article by appropriate legislation.
