In advance of #WomensEqualityDay, Leagues from all 50 states and DC sent a letter to the White House urging action for the immediate publication of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). The ERA would make equality on the basis of sex the law of the land, enshrining it in our Constitution. The Amendment was first introduced 101 years ago, and has met all ratification requirements. Despite this -- and its overwhelming public support -- it remains unpublished. It's past time for equality to be the law of the land. LWV will continue to support the ERA's passage. https://lnkd.in/ek9JRtXQ
