Answer 1

The two correct answers regarding the immediate effect of the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment are:

• full voting rights for women in every state
• other legislative efforts to promote women’s welfare

The Nineteenth Amendment granted women the legal right to vote, leading to a push for further legislative changes that aimed to improve women's rights and welfare. However, it did not lead to full suffrage for women in most countries or a significant decrease in the number of women working outside the home. The representation of women in Congress also took time to increase significantly after the amendment's passage.
