About this event
The Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced in Congress on December 13, 2023 by Susan Anthony's nephew.
It came close to succeeding in the 1970s, but was held back by many arguments such as that it would lead to changes including gender neutral bathrooms, same sex marriages and women in combat. Hmmm... Here are links to learn more.
