The Nineteenth Amendment ratified which right?

The Nineteenth Amendment ratified which right?

• A. Prohibits alcohol.
• B. Grants women the right to vote.
• C. Endorses Prohibition for men only.
• D. Establishes women's council.

Answer: (B)

The Nineteenth Amendment expands voting rights by prohibiting denying the right to vote based on sex, which guarantees that women can vote. It was ratified in 1920 after decades of activism, marking a major step in civil rights by ensuring that voting eligibility could not be blocked because of being a woman. The other options don’t fit: one refers to banning alcohol in a different amendment, another idea is not a real amendment at all, and the last describes creating a council rather than addressing voting rights.
