Updated: The 2018 Election Season Saw the Highest Number of Women in American History Run For, and Elected To, Federal Office: Who Are They?
The 2018 election season saw the highest number of women in American history run for, and elected to, federal office.

But as we confidently believe, and as we have before stated, the right already exists in our national constitutions, and especially under the recent amendments.
