Answer:

I believe that Alice Paul deserves more credit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although all women who were involved in the suffragette movement should be credited for drafting the nineteenth amendment, which prohibits gender discrimination to vote, I believe that Alice Paul deserves greater credit. This is because she worked directly on the strategies for the formulation of the nineteenth amendment, in addition to promoting movements and claims so that this amendment could be adopted throughout the country at once and not that each state approved in its time.
