The 19th Amendment amendment states that 'the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex'.

Starting in the 1800s, women organized, petitioned, and picketed to win the right to vote, but it took them decades to accomplish their purpose. The 19th Amendment (1920) to the Constitution of the United States provides men and women with equal voting rights. The amendment states that the right of citizens to vote "shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." Although this equality was implied in the 14th Amendment (1868), most of the states continued to restrict or prohibit women's suffrage.

What is one major difference between Elizabeth Cady Stanton's Declaration of Sentiments, produced at the Seneca Falls Convention
zavuch27 [327]
One major difference between Stanton's Declaration of Sentiments and the Declaration of Independence was the rights granted to women.

In the Declaration of Independence, it says that "all men are created equal." In the Declaration of Sentiments, it discusses how all men and women are equal. The Declaration of Sentiments then goes on to discuss all the different abilities that women did not have at this time. This includes the ability to: vote, keep their wages, and own property. All of these grievances (aka sentiments) were the core of the women's suffrage movement of the late 19th and early 20th century.
