The lasting impact that Alice left with us is the 19th amendment. She was very determined with her work and had few limits, so without her we may not have gotten the 19th amendment until much later. After women got the right to vote in 1920, she devoted herself to working on more empowering things for women. Like how in 1923 when Alice introduced the first Equal Rights Amendment to Congress, and years later she worked on the civil rights bill along with fighting for equality with employment. Sadly she was not alive to see the Equal Rights Amendment added to the Constitution, but she did get an equal rights affirmation to be included in the preamble of the United Nations charter. Alice Paul continued fighting for woman's rights until she was weakened by a stroke in 1974. She died on July 9, 1977, at the age of 93 in her hometown.
"I never doubted that equal rights was the right direction. Most reforms, most problems are complicated. But to me there is nothing complicated about ordinary equality." - Alice Paul
