CELEBRATE WOMEN'S EQUALITY DAY

 

      Monday, August 26, is the 87th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, which gave women - after a long and hard struggle - the right to vote. BPW members were a key part of the fight for women's suffrage then, and BPW members know that equity is still an issue today. Women's Equality Day is a time to remember that our votes remain a vital tool for shaping the policy issues that affect women every day.
