She Was The First Woman Elected to Federal Office in 1916 by Hosts Hannah Fergesen and Deanna Greif | Produced by Benjamin Garst 

Jeannette Rankin was not only the first woman ever elected to congress, she did so before women had the right to vote across the US. She was a suffragist, a social worker, and she believed not only in women's rights, but in space for women within politics. She was a seriously good witch, who made waves in Washington and helped changed the country and politics for the better.

Intro - 3:10 | Deanna and Hannah listen to a parakeet whistle to a nice tune.

3:10 - 50:20 | Person of the week: Jeannette Rankin
