D. Succeeded in obtaining "equal pay for equal wok " for women employed in steel factories
Is the correct answer C??
Yes, C. is right.
To find the correct answer to this question, we can try to eliminate the options that are incorrect.
Option A states that the women's suffrage movement did little to impact the modern protest movement for women's rights. While it is true that the modern women's rights movement has different focuses and goals than the suffrage movement, it is incorrect to say that the suffrage movement had little impact. The suffrage movement laid the groundwork for future movements and contributed to the broader struggle for women's rights. Therefore, option A is incorrect.
Option B suggests that the suffrage movement discouraged women from entering the labor force until they received the right to vote during World War I. This statement is inaccurate. The suffrage movement actually played a role in mobilizing women and encouraging their participation in the workforce during the war. They argued that women's contributions to the war effort warranted political recognition and the right to vote. So, option B is also incorrect.
Option C claims that the suffrage movement resulted in the passage of the 19th amendment in 1920. This is correct. The women's suffrage movement fought for and eventually achieved the ratification of the 19th amendment, which granted women the right to vote in the United States. So, option C is the correct answer.
Option D suggests that the suffrage movement succeeded in obtaining "equal pay for equal work" for women employed in steel factories. This statement is false. While the suffrage movement did advocate for various women's rights, including fair wages, the achievement of equal pay for equal work came later with the passage of separate legislation, such as the Equal Pay Act of 1963. Therefore, option D is incorrect.
In summary, option C is the correct answer. The women's suffrage movement resulted in the passage of the 19th amendment in 1920, granting women the right to vote.
