Dear Representative,

With just weeks left in the term of 118th Congress there is an urgent opportunity to make a lasting impact on our nation's commitment to equality. The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) is the permanent, comprehensive tool we need to secure equality under the law for all people. We need Congress to act now to protect our rights. We are asking you to vote your values and stop the government from restricting our freedoms.

The Equal Rights Amendment will add women to the U.S. Constitution and finally put an end to legalized discrimination based on sex and gender for all people. This is a bipartisan issue that the majority of Americans support. Our ability to survive, succeed, and thrive in the United States should not depend on our gender. The ERA gives us a tool to fight sex and gender discrimination and ensure that anyone can live healthy, resourced lives regardless of their sex.

We urge you to take action to ensure equality for over half of the U.S. population. Our rights and our freedom should not be up for debate. You can guarantee we are on the path to gender equality by signing the discharge petition for Congresswoman Pressley’s H.J. Res 25, a resolution to remove the deadline on the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. The ERA has fulfilled all requirements laid out in Article V of the Constitution–passage by 2/3rds of Congress and ratification by 38 states. We can’t let an arbitrary procedural hurdle deny half of the U.S. population their hard-won equal protection under the law.

We demand equality. We come into this world as equal, it is time our nation’s founding document reflects that. Congress has a duty to advance equal rights and you can deliver meaningful action for your constituents today.

We join the #ERANow movement of millions of Americans across the country who want the Equal Rights Amendment now.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this important matter.

Sincerely,

John, Washington
