March is Women's History Month, and this year's theme celebrates 'women who tell our stories.”
A national celebration of women started in the 1980s. Congress passed a joint resolution that designated the week of March 7, 1982, as Women's History Week.
In 1987, Congress passed a similar joint resolution, but it called for Women's History Week to be extended to Women's History Month. Since then, presidents have issued annual proclamations. "Women — often women of color — have been on the frontlines, fighting for and securing equal rights and opportunity throughout our country’s history as abolitionists, civil rights leaders, suffragists, and labor activists," the president stated."Disparities persist in economic security, health care, and caregiving responsibilities, especially for women and girls of color," Biden said.
