We need you to take action to support the Equal Rights Amendment, John.

This is your chance to tell , as well as Senate Majority Leader Schumer (D-NY) you want a floor vote on the ERA before the midterm elections.

The midterm elections are just 49 days away. As I write this, abortion rights are vanishing in state after state.

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has introduced a nationwide 15 week abortion ban. He has begun the discussion to ban abortion in every state of the union if the Republicans win the majority in the midterm elections. This means that access to abortion could be severely limited, even in District Of Columbia.

We need the Equal Rights Amendment more than ever for a basic guarantee in the Constitution to stop the denial of rights for women and the LGBTQ Community. Attacks on gender rights are happening every day.

The House of Representatives has voted — TWICE — to remove the timeline and advance the ERA. Earlier this year, 187 House members co-sponsored H.Res.891, which expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the Equal Rights Amendment is valid and already part of the Constitution.

Meanwhile, the Senate has done nothing. It is well past time for the Senate to act. The public must see the Republican Senators block an ERA floor vote with the use of the filibuster.

We need to flood Senators’ inboxes with messages urging them to call for a vote on the ERA right away. There is no time limit on equality. Your letter to the Senators makes it clear that they need to act.

An overwhelming majority of U.S. adults support Congress adding the ERA to the Constitution, and since the House of Representatives has now voted twice, it is high time for the Senate to act.

We owe it to ourselves and all future generations — we must add the ERA to the Constitution to protect and eliminate persistent gender discrimination. The ERA will prevent denial of rights based on sex discrimination.

Hold a Vote on the ERA!

Don’t delay, send your message right now. We must keep up the pressure. We must have a Senate floor vote before the midterm elections so that everyone can see that Republican Senators are standing in the way of the following words being enshrined in our Constitution:

For equality,

Eleanor Smeal President
