On Tuesday, President Donald Trump pardoned women's rights activist Susan B. Anthony who was on the front lines of the women's suffrage movement.

To no ones surprise, the Democrats were not happy about the decision.

Lt. Governor of New York Kathy Hochul was enraged by President Trump's decision as she demanded that he “rescind” the pardon so Susan B. Anthony could “rest in peace.”

“As highest ranking woman elected official in New York and on behalf of Susan B. Anthony’s legacy we demand Trump rescind his pardon. She was proud of her arrest to draw attention to the cause for women’s rights, and never paid her fine. Let her Rest In Peace,” tweeted Hochul.

Check out what The Hill reported on the pardon:

President Trump said Tuesday he would grant a full pardon posthumously to Susan B. Anthony, a famed women’s rights advocate who played a critical role in the women’s suffrage movement.

Trump made the announcement during a ceremony Tuesday morning celebrating the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote in the United States.

Anthony was found guilty in 1873 by a completely male jury for having illegally voted in the November 1872 presidential election and was fined $100.

“Later today, I will be signing a full and complete pardon for Susan B. Anthony,” President Trump said at the end of his speech at the White House. “She was never pardoned. What took so long?”

During the event, the President also signed a proclamation which recognized the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment.

“It was a monumental victory for equality, for justice, and a monumental victory for America,” President Trump said.

“Women dominate the United States. I think we can say that very strongly,” President Trump added.

The Hill continues:

Trump was joined at the event by first lady Melania Trump, Small Business Administrator Jovita Carranza, former Interior Department Assistant Secretary Susan Combs and a number of external participants, including Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser and Heritage Foundation President Kay Cole James.

Trump has overtly sought to court suburban female voters in recent weeks as he finds himself trailing Biden in the polls by highlighting his work to dismantle an Obama-era fair housing rule, though it’s unclear whether his tactics will work.

Last week, he tweeted that his decision to scrap the rule, which was meant to eliminate racial discrimination, would garner support from the “suburban housewife” afraid of living near low-income housing projects. Trump has also claimed that Biden would reinstate the rule and “abolish the suburbs.”

"I think suburban women very much appreciate what I did. I terminated it," Trump told reporters on Tuesday, referring to the fair housing rule. He also repeated his assertion that Biden would involve Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who is black, in an effort to reinstate the rule.

A CNN poll released Monday showing a tightening race between Trump and Biden also found that 59 percent of women say they would vote for Biden and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), while only 36 percent would vote for Trump and Vice President Mike Pence if the presidential election were held today.
