This day in history

On January 10, 1878, U.S. Senator Aaron Sargent (R-CA) first introduced the Susan B. Anthony amendment for women’s suffrage. The Demonrat-controlled Senate defeated it 4 times before the election of Republican majorities in both House and Senate guaranteed its approval in 1919. The 19th Amendment was ratified by the States in 1920.

Besides trying to deny all human rights to blacks, the Democrats tried to deny women the right to vote. The portrayal of the Democratic party as being the party of human rights is a lie.
