Friend, do you support the ERA?

Friend, did you miss our message from earlier last week? Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand has introduced a joint resolution to officially add the Equal Rights Amendment to our Constitution!

This joint resolution would finally ensure that gender-based discrimination is unconstitutional — and give us the legal framework to restore reproductive rights across the country. With the GOP targeting reproductive freedoms and civil rights more and more each day, codifying the Equal Rights Amendment has never been more important.

So much is on the line for our nation. That's why thousands of activists all across the country have added their names to tell Kirsten that they support the ERA — but we still need your signature!

Please, friend, Kirsten is counting on reliable Democrats like you to have her back. Will you add your name before midnight tonight to show your support for the ERA and help us hit our NEW 50,000 signature goal? This is your last chance to speak up!

"I SUPPORT THE ERA"

BREAKING FROM WASHINGTON:
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand introduces joint resolution to certify the Equal Rights Amendment and enshrine reproductive rights in the Constitution.

Now, we're calling on 20,000 Democrats to add their names in support of the ERA before midni‌ght ton‌ight. Please, friend, will you sign on now?

SIGN ON NOW

Friend, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) would establish that our civil rights cannot be infringed upon or taken away on the basis of gender. Activists have been fighting for 100 years to add this amendment to our Constitution — and we can't wait any longer.

When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, they took away the right for half of the population to access the health care they need. It's discrimination based on sex — plain and simple.

Thankfully, we're closer than ever before to certifying the ERA: 38 states have ratified it — now, it's just one signature away from being added to the Constitution. But an arbitrary deadline is stopping us from finally certifying this amendment!

That's why Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand has introduced a new joint resolution that would establish that this deadline should not stop us from certifying the ERA. With bipartisan support and filibuster reform, we can pass this joint resolution and finally establish gender equality in our Constitution.

This is a crucial moment in our fight for gender equality and reproductive rights. Kirsten needs to know where grassroots activists like you stand on the ERA. Please, will you add your name before midnight to show Kirsten that you support the ERA? She's counting on 20,000 signatures before midni‌ght toni‌ght!

SIGN ON NOW

A note from Kirsten:

Friend, I can't thank you enough for standing by my side in the critical fights ahead of us. As Democrats face our toughest Senate map in decades, I need your help more than ever.

While Republicans only have to defend 10 seats in 2024, Democrats have to defend 23 – and if the GOP flips just two of them, it will deliver Senate control back to Mitch McConnell. Now, experts at FiveThirtyEight is saying that the GOP has a clear path to the majority.

As right-wing special interests gear up to pour millions into flipping the Senate, we need to fight back right now. But I refuse to take a single cent from corporate PACs, which means I'm relying on your grassroots support. So please, chip in to help defend our narrow Democratic Senate majority. And if you'd like to become a core member of my team and receive exclusive texts from my campaign, text JOIN to 60708.

Thank you,

Kirsten Gillibrand
