We thank them all for their leadership which required great courage and persistence.
Let's hope the vote today will honor their legacy and protect women's rights today.

This Election Day, we honor the generations of women who worked to make their voices heard—and opened doors for others to do the same.

Across communities, countries, and generations, women have organized, advocated, and persevered to secure voting rights and a voice in the decisions that shape their lives. Their work took many forms, from gathering signatures and challenging laws to helping neighbors register and get to the polls.

At the National Women’s Hall of Fame, we celebrate the women whose courage and determination expanded opportunities for others. Today, we can honor their work through our own participation.

If you’re eligible and haven’t already cast your ballot, make your voice heard. Vote today!

Great news from NYC. Congratulations Jess McClain.

Jess McClain made history yesterday, becoming the first American woman to podium at the New York City Marathon in 8 years. In a thrilling finish, McClain kicked past 2025 champion Hellen Obriri to take second place with a time of 2:24.42.

In 2020, McClain stepped away from professional running after feeling the pressure to make the podium at all costs. She returned to competitive running in 2022, this time on her own terms, while balancing a full-time job, and she's been making history ever since. Earlier this year, she was the fastest American woman at the Boston Marathon and became the first woman to qualify for the 2028 Olympic Marathon Trials.

McClain is proving that there's no one way to reach the top. And sometimes, redefining success for yourself can take you further than you ever imagined.

Ues, use your hard won right to VOTE!!
POLLS Open tomorrow from 6 am to 9pm. Be there.

On November 2, 1920, millions of American women cast their first presidential ballots, bringing decades of organizing, protest, and persistence to the voting booth.

It was the first presidential election following ratification of the 19th Amendment, which prohibited denying voting rights on the basis of s*x. Some women had already voted in earlier presidential elections under state laws.

This milestone did not bring equal access for all. Racial discrimination, poll taxes, literacy tests, and intimidation continued to prevent many women, particularly Black women, from voting.

We honor the women who fought for this change—and those who continued the work of making voting rights a reality for all.

And for our NYS Election workers too as well as all those stepping up to serve in this historic election.

Who are election heroes? They’re the state and local officials, office staff, poll workers, and volunteers who ensure our elections are safe, secure, and accessible. This Election Hero Day, join us in thanking them for all that they do!
