Listen to ERA advocates testify in Virginia legislative committee

The advocates, working with legislative supporters, forced a “show of hands” vote in the Senate Committee. Protesters can be heard in this footage. Please listen carefully to all the testimony by the advocates as to the issues that came up as obstacles to passage. Also, note that Eileen Davis has her microphone silenced at one point (15” mark), before she is permitted to continue to speaking on the question of the ERA and issues surrounding “the secret abortion bill.”  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFf32MI4bMg&t=693s
