The women's suffrage movement led to the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, which granted women the right to vote. This allowed women to have a voice in the democratic process and increased the representation of the population in government. Women's suffrage also paved the way for increased advocacy for women's rights and greater gender equality in society.
