Answer 1

The correct response is:

It lobbied Congress to quickly pass the Nineteenth Amendment.

The formation of the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) in 1890 was critical because it unified various women's suffrage organizations and focused efforts on advocating for a constitutional amendment to secure women's right to vote at the federal level, ultimately leading to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920.
