Women TIES and its Equality Division support the efforts of the "Get off the Sidelines, Get on the ERA Bus!" asking New Yorkers to answer the call to put the Equal Rights Amendment into the United States Constitution in 2024.

They need your signature on a petition to secure lawmakers' signatures needed for an ERA Discharge Petition in the U.S. House of Representatives. If the Discharge Petition gets enough attention, they can finally bring the ERA to a vote by Congress which will hopefully pass and secure women's rights.

YOU can help by signing your name to the petition at this email address:

team@sign4era.org

MORE INFORMATION:

This is a bipartisan effort. 218 signatures are needed to trigger a House floor vote. They have secured 214 votes. Every House Democrat has signed the ERA Discharge Petition, so this leaves only the Republicans to add their signatures.

It's been 101 years since the ERA was first introduced in Seneca Falls, NY and it's long past due to be placed into the Constitution.
