It’s past time for Congress to act and affirm the ERA as our 28th Amendment.
John,
Last week, Representative Ayanna Pressley and I launched the first-ever ERA caucus — 100 years after the Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced and over half a century since it was passed by both chambers.
100 years is far too long for women, Black and brown folks, LGBTQ+ people, and other marginalized groups to wait for gender equality under the Constitution.
Equality is long overdue. If you agree and want to support our call for the Equal Rights Amendment, can you chip in $5 right now to help power our organizing in Congress and across the country to guarantee equal rights for all under the Constitution?

When the U.S. Constitution was first drafted, women, Black and brown folks, and all marginalized groups were intentionally written out. The absence of foundational equality allows discrimination to persist and injustice to fester — it’s past time for Congress to Act.
In 24 simple words, the Equal Rights Amendment will add to our constitution that ‘Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.’
This historic caucus — this multi-racial, mutli-generational grassroots movement we are building in Congress and across the country — will be exactly what we need to get the ERA across the finish line and achieve constitutional equality for all.
If you are able to, please chip in $5 right now to support this historic effort.
Now, let’s get to work.
Cori Bush
