Unfortunately, there is no longer a path for the ERA in the 118th Congress, but our work continues in coalition. AAUW joined the League of Women Voters and more than 140 partners in a recent letter calling on President Biden to act for publication of the ERA. As you may have seen, the U.S. Archivist and Deputy Archivist recently issued a statement on the ERA ratification process. Gloria Blackwell, AAUW CEO, responded: “We are extremely frustrated at the National Archivist’s refusal to publish the ERA. Her decision to side with the Trump administration and against legal scholars and the American Bar Association is reprehensible. Dr. Shogan, publish the ERA. Women around the country have waited long enough.”
AAUW will never give up on the ERA and encourages folks to continue taking action by making our voices heard. To read more about the ERA, please visit https://www.equalrightsamendment.org.
