The year 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of Minnesota's passage of the 19th Amendment and the incorporation of the nonprofit, nonpartisan Minnesota League of Women Voters to carry on the work of establishing full enfranchisement for women upon the dissolution of the Minnesota Woman Suffrage Association. The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment across the United States. Notably, women in South St. Paul, Minnesota, were the first women to vote under the 19th Amendment. St. Paul's Sarah T. Colvin was arrested in front of the White House for advocating votes for women. The women of Minnesota were paramount in this struggle to shape the future and ensure a more just and equitable society for all persons.

Subd. 2. Day of recognition. September 8, 2019, shall be observed as a day of recognition of the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution by the Minnesota Legislature, making Minnesota the 15th state to pass this amendment. Historical, civil, government, nonprofit, educational, business, and other organizations are encouraged to mark this anniversary by conducting educational programs to help Minnesotans learn about voting rights, particularly the 19th Amendment.
