Ratify the ERA - The 28th Amendment
To: Pres. Biden
From: A constituent in Portsmouth, VA
November 19, 2024
The 38-state threshold for ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment was achieved in 2020, yet it remains unpublished and excluded from the Constitution. This continued exclusion represents an unacceptable denial of equal rights under the law for all Americans regardless of sex. You have the power to uphold democracy by instructing the Archivist of the United States to finally certify and publish the ERA as the 28th Amendment. o combat systemic discrimination. Formally enshrining gender equality in our founding document will not only protect hard-won rights from rollback, but provide a crucial legal framework t to further equality & justice. I urge you to take this action to ensure the ERA's rightful place in the Constitution before your term concludes. With the clear will of the people expressed through state ratifications & your remaining time in office, publishing the ERA presents a vital opportunity
