The House Democratic Women's Working Group is inviting female members of both parties to wear white to President Donald Trump's State of the Union address next week as a symbol of solidarity.
"Wearing suffragette white is a respectful message of solidarity with women across the country, and a declaration that we will not go back on our hard-earned rights," Rep. Lois Frankel of Florida, the chair of the working group, told CNN.
Frankel pointed out there have never been as many Democratic women serving in Congress as there are today.
In 2017, the same group coordinated Democratic women wearing white to Trump's joint address to Congress. At the time, the women said they were wearing white not only in memory of the women's suffrage movement but also to show Trump their support for a number of issues affecting women, including affordable health care, reproductive rights and equal pay.
Wearing white has become common among female politicians who want to make a statement. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wore white to the new-member swearing-in ceremony earlier this month, and wrote in a tweet, "I wore all-white today to honor the women who paved the path before me, and for all the women yet to come."
The New York Democrat added, "From suffragettes to Shirley Chisholm, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the mothers of the movement."
Hillary Clinton wore white when accepting the Democratic nomination for president in 2016.

Eyeroll
They must be reminded to put red Hammer & Sickle badges on their white blouses, just to separate them from the Republicans who may wear Red, White and Blue clothing.
As for the late Rep. Shirley Chisholm (D-NY). Has anyone seen her FBI file? I understand that it is “VERY INTERESTING”. Could be she wasn’t who see seemed, claimed, posed to be. Only one way of finding out, and that includes the Investigators Files which could be destroyed by the Democrats. Might not have been the first time for that.
#76. Where id you get that old picture of Nancy Pelosi at her second job? You couldn’t recognize her now because of all that Botox.
Democrats gathering en masse dressed up in white has never led to anything good.
Wow. Great side-by-side comparison of articles written by the same POS. Thanks.
White is the old symbol of good. The good cowboys always wore white hats. Angels wore white robes. It is a gimmick led by gut thinking rather than critical thinking.
The Demoncraps will wear out their Identity Politics like an old shirt. Identity Politics is being played because all they have is the bankruptcy of hate. Hate derived from envy is at the heart of their darkness. They should be wearing black—black hats and releasing flying monkeys.
Yea, no Democratic female politicians who are virgins......
That is an appropriate image for the Jim Crow loving Demoncraps.
Good ‘un, Fiddlstix
Remarkable photo. Didn’t know women dressed in KKK outfits.
They are mostly mental virgins.
They should all wear RBG Dissent Doilies!
Solidarity? Democrat women don’t believe in solidarity with unborn babies, so I don’t think that will work.
The color of clothing these women wear makes no difference to anyone outside of the media.
Yes, they have. And they will get hammered (hammemered?) with the same meme’s as last time.
A juxtaposition of them in a group photo beside an old photo of a klan rally. Likely some of those will be revived.
Why look, here’s one for your garden now!
