August 26, 2011

(Trenton) New Jersey Democratic State Committee Chairman John Wisniewski issued the following statement marking the 91st Anniversary of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote: "Today we celebrate the 91st anniversary of the 19th amendment that gave women the right to vote. The lessons of history are unfortunately too easily forgotten. The struggle for equality did not end 91 years ago, but continues on to this day. Women are not only entitled to the right to vote, but equal pay for equal work and to be treated with dignity and respect. It is a struggle we all need to associate ourselves with and work for its success."
