Cori is helping lead the fight to finally pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
I have some exciting news to share:
Cori, alongside Rep. Ayanna Pressley, launched a new Congressional Caucus for the Equal Rights Amendment 100 years after the amendment was first introduced in Congress.
Black women have been on the forefront of the fight for equal rights in our country, so it is fitting that this renewed push to establish constitutional gender equality is being led by Cori, Ayanna, and other members of the Congressional Black Caucus.
Please consider showing your support for their work to include gender equality in the Constitution by chipping in $5 today.

This caucus will aim to:
- Affirm the Equal Rights Amendment as the 28th amendment to the Constitution;
- Raise awareness within Congress to establish constitutional gender equality as a national priority;
- Partner with an inclusive multi-generational, multi-racial coalition of advocates, activists, scholars, organizers, and public figures; and
- Center the people who stand to benefit the most from gender equality, including Black and brown women, LGBTQ+ people, people seeking abortion care, and other marginalized groups.
When the U.S. Constitution was first drafted, women, Black and brown folks, and all marginalized groups were intentionally written out. This exclusion has persisted for almost the entire life of our nation.
Equality is long overdue, John. That’s why Cori is helping lead the fight to finally publish the Equal Rights Amendment.
Please consider showing your support by contributing today.
