Monday, 26 August 2019 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM EST

State House Library, 2nd Floor, Providence, RI, 02903, United States.

The 19th Amendment to the U.S Constitution became law in 1920 on August 26, a date now recognized nationwide as Women's Equality Day. In preparation for the 100th Anniversary of this landmark decision, several organizations and volunteers are banding together to increase voter registration and the number of people actually voting in 2020. This workshop will train volunteers on the RI voter registration process. Afterward, volunteers will gather on the State House steps for a picture and a commemorative "Toast to Tenacity" in tribute to the suffragists who fought for American women's right to vote and the recognition that true gender equity has not yet been achieved.

Governor Raimondo will open the Toast to Tenacity at 4 pm. 

Both programs are sponsored by the Secretary of State Nellie Gorbea. Co-hosts include Vision2020, League of Women Voters, Planned Parenthood Votes! RI, RI NOW, The Woman Project, RI Coalition for Reproductive Freedom, RIDP Women's Caucus and RI Democratic Women for Leadership.
