John, it's past time we finally enact the Equal Rights Amendment.
We cannot ensure democracy for all until all genders are protected under the Constitution.
The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) is a proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would guarantee equal rights for all American citizens, regardless of sex. In January 2020, the ERA was on track to become the 28th amendment but was then stymied by Trump administration – who were ready to stop at nothing to restrict equal rights for women.
Now we must call on the Biden administration and Attorney General Merrick Garland to advance this critical win for democracy. If you’re with us, please add your name to this petition so we can remove the roadblocks for equal protections for all genders.
John, the passage of the ERA is one of the most impactful things we can do to move towards our collective vision and build power for a feminist future.
Ratification of the ERA would confirm once and for all, that equal rights under law is a core value in our Constitution. It would finally provide an explicit guarantee of protection against discrimination on the basis of sex, and it would end the patchwork of protections that currently exist at the federal, state, and local levels. The ratification of the ERA will impact each and every woman in America.
It has been nearly 100 years since the Equal Rights Amendment was introduced to Congress. We’ve waited long enough – we are calling on Attorney General Merrick Garland to correct this error and let history be made. Sign the petition now.
Forward together,
Women’s March
