The ERA was originally written by Alice Paul and Crystal Eastman, and was first introduced in Congress in December 1923.

Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Virginia's General Assembly passed the Equal Rights Amendment Wednesday, making it the 38th state to ratify the amendment.

The Virginia Senate voted 28-12 and the House of Delegates voted 59-41 to approve the Constitutional amendment which includes a provision that "equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex."

With Virginia's vote on Wednesday, the resolution has reached the 38-state minimum for it to be enacted in the U.S. Constitution, with Nevada and Illinois also voting to ratify the amendment since 2017.

The Equal Rights Amendment, or ERA, would provide greater protections to women throughout the United States and could provide a pathway to implement new laws surrounding issues such as equal pay and gender discrimination.

what took so long? :confused::eek:

(D)'z had to brainwash a whole generation and promote mass immigration in order to get enough retards together who don't realize we already have equal rights because the 14th handled the issue back in 1868.

Granted, it took almost a century for us to get that sorted, but it got sorted.

Not a single supporter of this amendment can name any rights that aren't already equal.

^^^ Old white men.

Can't pin everything on us. Phyllis Schlafly was by far the biggest and most effective opponent of ERA. Not to mention it passed both houses of Congress back when they were both mostly white and nearly all male.
