Are women persons in US law?

Yes, women are recognized as persons under U.S. law. The legal status of women as persons was solidified through various landmark rulings and legislation, including the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote in 1920. Subsequent legal protections, such as the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, further affirm their status as equal persons under the law. Thus, women have the same legal rights and protections as men in the United States.
