Equal Suffrage Association of Utah
The Equal Suffrage Association of Utah was a organization dedicated to advocating for women's right to vote in Utah. Founded in the late 19th century, it worked to promote women's suffrage through education, advocacy, and political action. The group aimed to secure equal voting rights for women, aligning with broader national movement for women's enfranchisement. Utah women gained the right to vote in 1870, but this was revoked in 1887 by federal law; the association continued its efforts until women regained voting rights in Utah in 1896. Overall, it played a key role in advancing gender equality in Utah's electoral process.
