President Trump will posthumously pardon woman’s suffrage leader Susan B. Anthony, who was arrested for voting in 1872 in violation of laws allowing only men to vote.

The president made the announcement during the White House’s celebration of the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment’s ratification, which guaranteed women the right to vote, on Tuesday.
