The ERA-NC Alliance reports: “The ERA Coalition, our national counterpart of which we are a Lead Organization, shared the following with us today:
“Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has announced that the House of Representatives plans to bring HJ Res 79, the bill to remove the deadline from the ERA, for a vote during the week of February 10th. This vote is a testament to the decades of hard work done by our fearless leaders in the legislature – Rep. Jackie Speier, lead sponsor, and Rep. Carolyn Maloney, longtime ERA champion, their staff and YOU! Please find the Dear Colleague announcing the vote … at this link: https://www.majorityleader.gov/content/dear-colleague-house-vote-iran-bills-credit-reporting-legislation-pro-act-puerto-rico.”
Excerpt from link:
Also that week [Feb. 10th], I expect to bring legislation to the Floor to remove the deadline for ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which would ensure the ERA can become part of our Constitution when it is ratified by a sufficient number of states.
Please share the information widely!
They will keep us apprised of any news on the specifics of the vote as they hear them.
