Hmmm, it’s been a while since ive read about read about that one, but wasnt there contraversy on the wording of that? Like it could adversely affect womens rights if that were passed or that it is the same protections under the 14th… but last time I checked something like 3/4 of all the states have already ratified the ERA in the states side. It is a weird one
Dont get me wrong, i know the opposition was coming from the right but im just saying what I remember the reasoning was. Places like New York and Oregon have codified it into their own state constitutions where as Oklahoma and Alabama havent.
I know it took many years to allow same sex marriage but it fell under the 14th. I would like to think that these sorts of rights are only bound to be given within my lifetime.

The opposition of the ERA was almost entirely from the right and focused on scaremongering about the end of traditional gender roles.
