Today marks the celebration of Susan B. Anthony's birthday, recognized for her dedication to women's rights and equality. Susan B. Anthony was a key figure in the movement that led to the Nineteenth Amendment, which prohibited states from denying voting rights based on sex. Her contributions extended beyond women's suffrage as she also advocated for abolitionism and life sanctity.
In acknowledgment of her legacy, President Trump highlighted his administration's efforts aligning with Anthony's principles. "As President, I have already taken historic action to advance the sacred causes that Susan B. Anthony cherished so deeply," he stated. Among these actions was an Executive Order safeguarding women’s sports and ending taxpayer-funded abortion.
President Trump expressed gratitude towards First Lady Melania Trump for her previous role in celebrating the centennial anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment at the White House with America's youth. He noted her ongoing commitment to empowering women globally.
The President concluded by recognizing Susan B. Anthony's leadership and achievements, urging continued support for freedom, dignity of life, and American ideals: "Let us continue her life’s work of creating a culture that celebrates the enduring triumph of Freedom, the dignity of life, and the full glory of the American promise."
