Endorse HJ Res. 47 and SJ Res. 39, legislation to remove the time limit for ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment.

On behalf of women of the United States, United 4 Equality calls on the Obama Administration to stand united with women by publically supporting HJ Res 47 and SJ Res 39—to remove the time limit for ratifying the ERA, allowing the time to garner the endorsement of the three additional states required for the Amendment to be ratified into the Constitution. Until U.S. women are guaranteed equality in the law of the land, they will not be full citizens of this country. Supreme Court Justice Scalia stated in 2011 that gender equality in the U.S. was not definite as the Constitution reads today. Public support of this legislation will send a clear message to the American people and our worldwide neighbors that the Obama Administration firmly stands for the principals our nation was built upon.
