Susan B. Anthony Day
February 15, 2022
Susan B. Anthony Day
Observed – School in session.
Wisconsin Public School Observance Day honoring the Feb. 15, 1820, birth of Susan B. Anthony, an early suffragist, who organized campaigns across the United States advocating for women’s right to vote, get an education, and own property. In 1872, she voted in a federal election and was arrested, tried, and fined for her action. In 1920, 14 years after her death, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified by three-fourths of the states and adopted, granting women the right to vote.
