President Biden declared this on January 17, 2025. Gender equality has been enshrined in our nation’s foundational document with the ERA. Despite misinformation and attempts to discredit its validity, our movement of movements must remain steadfast: the ERA is law. We don’t need further action; the People have spoken and we have the support of the legal community.

Our goal is to increase awareness about the Equal Rights Amendment being the 28th Amendment to the Constitution which ensures that one cannot be discriminated against because of one’s sex. The ERA is for everyone!
