Use you influence as an elected member of Congress to talk to President Biden. Use your influence as an elected member of Congress to post this request on social media. Pass the ERA.
Please tell President Biden you want him to pass the ERA. Biden can finally make the Equal Rights Amendment officially recognized as the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The only thing keeping this from happening is a directive from President Biden to the U.S. Archivist to certify and publish the ERA.
This request is on solid legal ground, as the Amendment has been ratified by Congress and the requisite number of States. Opponents have erected numerous hurdles to the ERA for more than 100 years. Now is the time for bold action. While I recognize that ultimately this issue will be decided by the courts, it is far better to be fighting from a position of strength.
Recently, 46 Senators, led by Senator Kristin Gillibrand, sent a letter to President Biden seeking the same action I am asking for here.
