Namesake: Elvia Carrillo Puerto (1881–1965) was a pioneering Mexican activist who fought for women’s voting rights in the early 20th century. Her advocacy helped pave the way for women’s suffrage granted in 1953. Today her legacy endures in Mexico’s gender parity laws, with an equal number of male and female legislators.
