December 20, 2025 Dear Family and Friends, Men and women are coming together! Across the nation, the bridge to common ground is uniting us for equality for all. Persistent inequalities continue to affect both men and women in profound ways—such as the gender pay gap, where women earn approximately 83 cents for every dollar men earn (per recent Bureau of Labor Statistics and Pew Research Center data); discriminatory practices in insurance, pensions, and family law that can disadvantage men in areas like custody assumptions or alimony; and the lack of explicit constitutional protections against sex-based discrimination. Without true equal pay and rights, it places an unfair burden on men as primary providers and pigeonholes them into limited career choices, restricting freedom and fairness for everyone. Your voices are making history as we urge Senator Lisa Murkowski to champion Senate Joint Resolution 38 (SJ Res 38)—leading a Dear Colleague letter to build Senate momentum and finally ratify the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) as the 28th Amendment, guaranteeing equal rights regardless of sex. Petition Update as of December 20, 2025: • Signatures: 142 strong (with 53 added this week!) • Recent signers: Margaret Planton, Robert Rudl, Beth Roberts, Walt Eddy, Sandra Ashcraft, and many more—supporters from states across the country standing united. • Next goal: 200 signatures (petitions with 1,000+ are 5x more likely to win!) Every signature amplifies our call for Senator Murkowski—a proven leader—to spearhead this effort and rectify decades of inaction. Your commitment is igniting hope and proving that together, we can create a fairer, more inclusive future.
