Are we alone to ask and take the utmost that our women can give, —service and sacrifice of every kind, —and still say we do not see what title that gives them to stand by our sides in the guidance of the affairs of their nation and ours? –President Woodrow Wilson, Address to the Senate, 1918 Why did President Wilson support the Nineteenth Amendment? Check all that apply. Women deserve the right to participate. Society does not give women the same responsibilities as men. Women share the burden of supporting the nation. Women do not contribute to the nation. It is hypocritical to deny women the right to vote.
