The Equal Rights Amendment is a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution that would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex. Despite being introduced in Congress nearly a century ago, it has yet to be ratified by the required 38 states. Ratifying the ERA would enshrine gender equality into the highest law of the land, providing a strong legal foundation to combat sex-based discrimination in areas like employment, education, and other spheres of public life. I urge you to support the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment as a crucial step towards achieving true equality under the law for all Americans, regardless of gender.
