The House Democratic Women's Working Group is inviting female members of both parties to wear white to the State of the Union address as a symbol of solidarity."Wearing suffragette white is a respectful message of solidarity with women across the country, and a declaration that we will not go back on our hard-earned rights," Rep. Lois Frankel of Florida, the chair of the working group, told CNN.There have never been as many Democratic women serving in Congress as there are today.Notably, many members were invited to wear black to the State of the Union address last year in solidarity with the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements, which have spread across the country.
