We are sending you our sincerest hopes that you are weathering this pandemic and the restrictions it has brought to us all. A special meditation for the many who are grieving. Wishes for health, and thanks to our workers on the front lines in all capacities.

As Abigail Adams famously told her husband when working on creating the Constitution, “Remember the Ladies.” Our founders did not, and left women out of this most essential document. We have been paying a high price ever since.

That is why we are working so hard on the Equal Rights Amendment–to fix this grievous exclusion. We are very close. But right now we will see up close the damage the absence of equality can exact.

Happy Women’s History Month, Happy International Women’s Day, Happy great progress in amending the Constitution. In 2020 already: the 38th state, a House vote to dissolve the time limit in the amendment’s introduction. Cheers and carry on. We certainly will.

What a couple of heady, wildly successful days in Washington, DC!

We are so thrilled to be celebrating with you yesterday’s successful passage– by a 232 to 183 vote–of HJ Res 79, the House bill to remove the deadline from the 1972 ERA.

As you know, we have been working with our supporters and partners to see Rep. Jackie Speier’s bill, HJ Res 79, brought to the House Floor for a full vote. And we did it! This Thursday, February 13th, Congress will vote to remove the time limit from the 1972 ERA.
