Today, August 26 is officially deemed Women’s Equality Day, a holiday celebrating the passage of the 19th amendment, thus effectively granting women the right to vote. This year marks the 89th anniversary of American women’s suffrage. In honor of the celebration, the White House unveiled their website for the Council on Women and Girls and President Obama also released a Proclamation today declaring that, “the fight for women’s equality is not a woman’s agenda, but an American agenda.”
