From LWVUS ...

Equal Rights Amendment First Introduced in 1923

We shouldn’t have to beg for fundamental rights for 100 years. Congress must prioritize publication of the Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution. The demand for the ERA is long overdue and more urgent than ever. The U.S. is the only modern democracy that does not include sex equality in its Constitution.
