Welcome to Equal Means ERA
We are a nonpartisan group of women and men who have come together to support South Carolina's ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the U.S. Constitution.
The Equal Rights Amendment is a moral issue that requires political action. It looks forward to a legal system in which every person will be judged on the basis of individual merit, so that all people have the power to make full use of their political and economic capabilities. By recognizing in law, the dignity and worth of every one of its citizens, our state and country would empower the infinite talents of more than half of its citizens — WHO HAPPEN TO BE WOMEN. 94% of adults believe in equal rights. 80% of Americans think the Constitution guarantees them. It does not. The time is NOW. We are committed to getting this done. Come join us. Together we’ll make Herstory! |
