Now is the time to ratify the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment)

Dear Member of Congress,

If we are to aspire to the ideals that America is the land of liberty and justice for all, then we must include EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL in our nation's laws.

I am asking you to support the ratification of the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment).

Sincerely,

Can you take 1 (one) minute to send a message to your member of congress to ratify the ERA? We have provided a letter for you to edit or use as is. Please share your personal story about why this matters to you. Your story is powerful!

BACKGROUND

Two-thirds of the states have approved the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment), but the artificial deadline placed when it was initially passed by Congress in 1972 has prohibited it from being legally enacted. To eliminate the time limit, congressional Democrats have proposed a resolution ( (H.J.Res. 25 / S.J. Res 4) to remove this time limit barrier and add the Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution.

It's been 100 years since the Equal Rights Amendment was first drafted in 1923.

This amendment seeks to guarantee legal rights for all American citizens regardless of sex. The Amendment States: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex".

Moving forward, the Constitution should reflect the nation’s future, one in which the United States is a leader—not a follower—on the world stage and where it upholds its central tenet of equality for all, regardless of sex or gender. While often portrayed as a world leader, the United States lags behind the 76 percent of countries around the world with constitutions that guarantee equal rights for women.

According to a 2016 survey commissioned by the ERA Coalition, a whopping 94 percent of people in the United States would support an amendment enshrining gender equality into the Constitution.

Please take 1 (one) minute and send a quick message to your member of Congress to ratify the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment). We can not stop championing equal rights!
