Urgent action needed now!

The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was passed by Congress in 1972, with the stated purpose of enshrining equality between the sexes in our Constitution. However, it failed to be ratified by three-fourths of the states (38) within the 7-year time limit established by Congress. In fact, last week a federal district court in D.C. affirmed that the Virginia General Assembly’s 2020 ratification of the ERA is not valid because it came after the deadline.   

This week, however, the U.S. House of Representatives plans to vote on a resolution to eliminate the ratification deadline. Act now on a USCCB alert to let your House member know you oppose this resolution. 

The ERA in its current form poses very serious problems, including likely requiring federal funding for abortions and overturning pro-life and conscience protection laws.  Learn more about the consequences of the ERA here.
