Decades of piecemeal legislation have not brought women equal justice under the law. Only the Equal Rights Amendment can do that.    Good News!  Illinois, ratified the Equal Rights Amendment, leaving one state to go.  

Now what, you ask?  

If you are in Illinois, urge our Illinois congressional delegation to sponsor the resolution that will remove the deadline, H.J.Res 38 .  Here is an printable contact list.   All you have to do is say "I am a constituent.  Please vote for HJRes38 to lift the deadline on the Equal Rights Amendment."

With one state left, all eyes are on Virginia, Arizona, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Missouri, Georgia, and others.  They need your help [hint: $$$$].
