EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT 
100^th ANNIVERSARY MARCH  

Advocacy – Equal Rights Amendment.  “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State on account of sex” needs to be placed into our Constitution. While most states have laws prohibiting discrimination of any kind based on sex, proponents of the E.R.A. say laws can be reversed or eliminated. Having a Constitutional Amendment would cement those rights.  

SIGN4ERA – May I encourage you to take the time RIGHT NOW to sign onto this link. http://www.sign4era.orgI just received my correspondence from this group as they share the urgency of telling all our families, neighbors, coworkers to sign on immediately. With Alabama’s alarming court ruling that frozen embryos are considered people, the urgency to protect not only in vitro fertilization but all reproductive rights has never been more important. But what we heard from Alabama will not be the only state. Other states are already introduced anti-IVF laws. 

One more attack on women and their reproductive freedoms. We must place the Equal Rights Amendment in our United States Constitution. The ERA will offer us permanent protection for sexual and reproductive health and rights that include abortion, all forms of birth control, fertility treatments and all other reproductive healthcare including IVF. 

Earlier in the week of February 18^th, former member of Congress Carolyn Maloney told ERA supporters in Annapolis, Maryland, “We cannot have equal rights for people in one state and not in all states. The right and access to reproductive health care MUST be available to all people in all states.”
