2020 Women’s Vote
Centennial Initiative
Nancy Tate, cochair of
the 2020 Women’s Vote Centennial
Initiative, will provide an overview of
the 72-year struggle for women to win the right to vote with passage of the
19th Amendment in 1920 (ending in Tennessee by 1 vote), current efforts
underway to commemorate the centennial, and ways that local governments, their
communities, and/or individual ICMA members can participate in commemorating
the centennial. The Initiative is an information-sharing collaborative
focused on commemorating the 100th anniversary of women winning the
Constitutional right to vote. From 2000 to 2015, Nancy Tate served as the executive
director of the League of Women Voters of the United States, the only national successor to the women’s suffrage movement. $45
