Let your representative know

I need you to take action on the Equal Rights Amendment today, John.
The Equal Rights Amendment prohibits discrimination based on sex. Given the devastating Supreme Court decision to repeal Roe in late June, it is even more obvious that the ERA is needed more than ever [[link removed]] .
We MUST act now to enshrine the ERA in the US Constitution.
Thank your Representative for supporting House Res. 891 [[link removed]]
The US House has already removed the original time limit set on the ERA. Now the House is in the process of advancing House Res. 891, which expresses the sense of the House that the ERA to the US Constitution is valid. This means that the ERA has already been ratified.
The wording of House Res. 891 was intentionally modeled after language used to confirm the validity of the very important 14th Amendment and it’s Equal Protection Clause.
179 members of the House have already signed on to the resolution as co-sponsors. We need 218 total co-sponsors, the majority of the House, to sign on to House Res. 891. That has to happen as quickly as possible. To do that we need your help. [[link removed]]
Your job is easy! We need you to thank your Representative who has already become a co-sponsor [[link removed]] . And secondly, ask your Representative to urge other members of the House to become co-sponsor of this historic House Res. 891. To show its importance, Speaker Pelosi has become the leading cosponsor, along with chief co-sponsors Jackie Speier and Carolyn Maloney.
Thank your Representative for supporting House Res. 891 [[link removed]]
We can do this!
