The correct answer is: "Gaining the right to vote enabled women to dominate Congress and pass equal rights legislation".
The 19th Amendment to the US Constitution was passed in 1919, during the presidency of Woodrow Wilson. It acknowledged voting rights for all US citizens, without discrimination in terms of gender, explicitly prohibiting that the states or the federal goverment could prevent any citizen from voting due to sex motives.
<u>The enactment of the 19th amendment was the beggining of female participation in politics. </u>F<u>rom this moment onwards, women</u> were able to vote, to become members of political parties and to run for different positions as candidates. As a consquence, many women entered in the public institutions, and became representatives that fought for equality of rights and the enactment of new legislation that ensured equal rights for men and women.
