The data used in this study is in the form of a speech in Rosi's speech on the topic "Tough Women Against Pandemic" using Pragma-dialectical data analysis techniques. The results show that at each stage of the argument, speech acts are found that build an argument. The argumentative speech acts are assertive, directive, expressive, commissive, and declarative, which are found in four stages of critical discussion. Based on these speech acts, it can be concluded that the women, when presenting their arguments, did not hesitate to apologize, showed fighting power (resilience), were independent and happy, dared to ask for attention, dared to express their point of view, dared to compare, dared to express disagreement, dared to express admiration and women's struggle, dare to convey gender equality, and be firm about women's rights and roles.
