Women were granted equal voting rights to men in the United States with the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. This amendment prohibited any U.S. citizen from being denied the right to vote on the basis of sex. However, it's important to note that many women of color, especially African American, Native American, Asian American, and Latina women, faced additional barriers to voting even after 1920. Full voting rights for all women were further secured through subsequent legislation and civil rights movements.
