This year marks the centennial of women's suffrage in New York State, three years before the 19th amendment to the United States Constitution. Senator Montgomery is a proud member of the Women's Suffrage Commission which is organizing programs statewide to celebrate women's suffrage and honor the legacy of our historic trailblazers.

Join Senator Montgomery, Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul and Shola Lynch for a FREE special screening and discussion of "Chisolm '72: Unbought and Unbossed" at BRIC House on September 20!
