On the eve of the Senate Judiciary Committee vote to send Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the full Senate for a vote, we express our continued concern. This unseemly rush is an affront to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and all of us who respect her legacy of work in the interest of all Americans. A 6-3 Supreme Court endangers many of the hard-won victories for equality in the Court.

We believe that the case for the Equal Rights Amendment is made stronger than ever.

It is an unacceptable rush to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It is clear that our rights to equality and freedom are in danger. Justice Ginsburg’s lifetime of work on behalf of women must not be erased.
