She was "instrumental" in including the prohibition of sex discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In 1982, Griffiths was also the first woman elected Lieutenant Governor of Michigan, as Matilda Dodge Wilson had been appointed the first female Lieutenant Governor of Michigan in 1939.
