She founded the League of Women Voters in 1920 and the International Woman Suffrage Alliance in 1904,which was later named International Alliance of Women.

She "led an army of voteless women in 1919 to pressure Congress to pass the constitutional amendment giving them the right to vote and convinced state legislatures to ratify it in 1920" and "was one of the best-known women in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century and was on all lists of famous American women."
