"President Biden: Have Faith in the ERA" [View all]

We, the undersigned over 60 national religious, religiously-affiliated, secular, values-based, and faith-centered organizations and communities, share a commitment to equality and social justice. Through our cherished traditions, we affirm the inherent dignity and equal worth of every individual. In this spirit, we strongly support the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), the ratified 28th amendment to the United States Constitution, that would guarantee equal rights to all people regardless of sex. We urge you to take the historic step of instructing the National Archivist to publish and certify the ERA. This action would stand as one of the most impactful milestones of your presidency and a historic achievement for advancing gender equity.

There is a strong push for this now and I believe President Biden will do it. He's a great man and he always does what he believes to be just and right.

I have read some comments here on on why they don't believe it will succeed but I have also read comments on legal sites on why it will.

There is nothing to lose and so much to gain.
