Historian Doris Kearns Goodwin initiates $2 million campaign for Ohio women's suffrage monument.

Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Doris Kearns Goodwin is launching a $2 million fundraising campaign for a women's suffrage monument in Ohio. The event, "An Evening With Doris Kearns Goodwin," at the Ohio Statehouse, will discuss her latest book and aims to construct the monument by 2026. The Women's Suffrage Monument Commission, established in 2019, seeks to increase the presence of women in public statues, currently less than 8% nationally.
