Support the ERA – Sign the Petition!

Sign a petition in support of the ERA!

From the website, sign4era.org:

“On April 27 the Resolution was brought to a vote in the Senate. With 98 of the 100 Senators present the majority –51—voted to place the ERA in the Consitution. Because of the arcane filibuster rule requiring 60 votes –9 more than a majority—the resolution fell 9 votes short. Every Democrat and 2 Republicans (Senators Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins) voted for the ERA. Every other Republican voted “NO.”

Thanks to the procedural skill of and pro-ERA enthusiasm of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer there will be additional opportunities to vote on the resolution again in this same session of Congress.”

The sign4ERA.org website offers a brief history of the efforts to make the ERA part of the US C0nstitution. And a petition you can sign to add your support for the amendment.
