History

edit

The caucus was launched 100 years after the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was first introduced in Congress.[1] The Equal Rights Amendment Caucus will reportedly "partner with advocates, activists, scholars, organizers, and public figures to establish a constitutional right to gender equality, and raise awareness".[2] The caucus will work to affirm the ERA as the 28th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.[3]
