Join us in commemorating the birthday of Dr. Alice Paul, born in 1885. She, was a prominent suffragist and women's rights activist who formed the National Woman's Party and endured imprisonment and forced-feedings in her fight for voting rights for women. #womenshistory #suffrage

"As Dianna Wynn, president of @LWV , recently stated, 'Democracy works best when it works for all of us.' The ERA [will ensure] that equality is not just a privilege, but the constitutionally guaranteed right of every American." Thanks @chicagotribune for publishing our letter!
