SUFFRAGE STATUE
Moving the Suffrage Statue

As its first major achievement, the NWHM spearheaded the effort with other women’s organizations to raise $85,000 and generate public support to move this monument of Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Susan B. Anthony out of its 76‑year confinement in the Capitol Crypt to the rotunda of the U.S. Capitol.  Now over 4 million visitors a year can see the contributions of these leaders of the Women’s Suffrage Movement.
