Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage
The Congressional Committee was a part of the NAWSA (National American Woman Suffrage Association) from its beginnings in early 1913 until late 1913. Then it became the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage, and merged into the National Woman's Party in 1916.

Militant Suffragists Split Over Strategy
After the 1913 inauguration and other militant suffragist actions, the NAWSA (National American Woman Suffrage Association) pushed the militants out. The militants, led by Alice Paul, eventually formed the National Woman's Party.
