AP US Government
Unit 3 – Civil Liberties and Civil Rights
Topic 3.9
How did the Nineteenth Amendment impact women's participation in government?
Legislative positions remain largely male-dominated because the amendment did not mandate gender quotas.
There was no significant change because most women were uninterested in politics at that time.
Women’s involvement decreased due to backlash against gender equality movements associated with women's suffrage..
By granting women suffrage, it significantly increased their representation in government positions over time.
