27、e. Jeanette thought this was not fair, and several years later, after graduating from college, she realized how to help change the situation. First, she joined with other women. and gave speeches through the state. Thanks to their years of efforts,Montana women were finally allowed to vote. This exp

32、her, but some praised her for her courage. Shortly before she died in 1973, she was asked if she regretted voting“no”to the two wars.“Never,”she answered.“If you are against war,youre against war regard less of what happens.” Today, in the US Congress Building,there is a statue of Jeanette Rankin.
