WASHINGTON D.C. – President Donald Trump commemorated Women’s History Month with a 3 p.m. event at the White House on Wednesday.
“Today we honor the legacy of incredible women like Betsy Ross, Harriet Tubman, Susan B. Anthony, Clara Barton, and Amelia Earhart, all legends. Their extraordinary courage, patriotism, and devotion helped propel our nation to glory and greatness,” President Trump said.
President Trump also recognized his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, a former political powerhouse in Jacksonville. He went on to praise White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, Attorney General Pam Bondi and Education Secretary Linda McMahon.
