The women's poll tax repeal movement was a movement in the United States predominantly led by women that attempted to secure the abolition of poll taxes as a prerequisite for voting in the Southern states. The movement began shortly after the ratification in 1920 of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which granted suffrage to women. Before obtaining the right to vote, women were not obliged to pay the tax, but shortly after the Nineteenth Amendment became law, Southern states began examining how poll tax statutes could be applied to women. For example, North and South Carolina exempted women from payment of the tax, while Georgia did not require women to pay it unless they registered to vote. In other Southern states, the tax was due cumulatively for each year some

Le mouvement commence peu après la ratification, en 1920, du dix-neuvième amendement de la Constitution des États-Unis, qui accorde le droit de vote aux femmes. Avant d'obtenir le droit de vote, les femmes n'étaient pas obligées de payer l'impôt, mais peu après l'entrée en vigueur du dix-neuvième amendement, les États du Sud ont commencé à examiner comment les lois sur l'impôt électoral pouvaient être appliquées aux femmes.
