Wyoming Women's

Suffrage

December 10th, 2019 marked the 150th Anniversary of Women’s Suffrage for the State of Wyoming.
Wyoming, then a territory, granted women the right to vote nearly 50 years prior to the signing of the 19th amendment in 1920. Wyoming derived its name as the “Equality State” because it was the first state to grant Women congressional rights such as voting and serving in political office. Wyoming was proudly home to the first Woman Justice of the Peace, first All Female Jury, first female Statewide Elected Official, first Town in America to be Governed Entirely by Women (Jackson, WY), first Woman Governor, Nellie Tayloe Ross, who served from 1925 to 1927 and in 1933, was the first woman to be appointed by Franklin D. Roosevelt to head the U.S. Mint.

The Proud Wyoming Woman Retreat (PWWR) was created and developed by Jenissa Meredith, Executive Director of Sweetwater County Travel & Tourism. “Wyoming is more than a place of residence. It is way of life. I was born in Cheyenne and grew up in Rock Springs. I attended Western Wyoming Community College and the University of Wyoming. After receiving my bachelor’s degree, I chose to come back home to Sweetwater County to raise my children and use my education to develop in this career that I love. I have tremendous pride in Sweetwater County and in the state of Wyoming and I know that many other women feel the same way. I want this retreat to reflect the pride that originated at the time of women’s suffrage and that lives on today. I want it to reflect the ideals and unique lifestyles of a Proud Wyoming Woman.”
