📅 On This Day – March 22, 1972 📅 On March 22, 1972, the U.S. Senate passed the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and sent it to the states for ratification—a major step forward in the fight for gender equality. Designed to guarantee equal legal rights for all Americans, regardless of sex, the ERA aimed to eliminate discrimination and ensure true equality under the law. Although the amendment fell short of full ratification, its passage in Congress ignited a national conversation about women’s rights, workplace equity, and legal protections that continues today. The ERA remains a powerful symbol of progress, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of justice for all. #OnThisDay 🗓️ #WomensHistoryMonth 💜 #ERA #EqualRightsForAll ⚖️ #EqualityMatters #KeepPushingForward 🚀
