JUST HOLD A HEARING ON THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT (ERA) BILLS NOW!
JUST HOLD A HEARING ON THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT (ERA) BILLS NOW!
The Issue
Females are still not mentioned in the Nation's contract with its People, The U.S. Constitution; males are--39 times. That means 52% of the 99% have no guaranteed rights there! It means women can go on forever being paid salaries averaging only 80% of men's. That puts 1 of 7 elderly women in poverty...and THAT'S just for Starters! Go to www.2PassERA.org, click ERA for women and SEE the list of our have- nots that keeps us women second-class in US society!
ERA just says: "Equality under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."/gender. Men benefit, too!
America has only been waiting since the 1700s for gender-equal treatment codified in the Constitution. NOTHING else works--not 14th Amendment, not laws, not the FL Constituion! Hold ERA HEARINGS, Florida legislative leadership! ERA does not "hurt' Business. Those corporations will STILL fund your campaigns, not to worry--they have to pay for influence SOMEWHERE.
Besides ERA boosts the Nation's GDP, boosts tax revenues and cuts costs of the courts, Medicaid, food stamps and Public Assistance.
AND, ERA Requires NO funding!
WHY are you keeping 52% of the nation---girls and women--from self-determination and full personhood-- second-class. YOU have daughters, wives and Moms, too!
