Friend, |
President Biden just declared that the Equal Rights Amendment is now a valid part of the Constitution, and should be considered the law of the land. |
This is an incredible moment for reproductive freedom, and a historic day for equality – especially with Americans facing the further degradation of reproductive freedom as the incoming administration takes power. |
Now, women living in states with restrictions on their reproductive freedoms can – and should – file suits to overturn these unconstitutional laws that discriminate on the basis of sex. I know they will have ample support as they seek justice, and I promise to stand by their side in this fight. |
Let me be clear: The time for handwringing over minutiae and procedure is over. Now, we must move to implementation. |
I also want to take a moment to thank you for your support. This team has been by my side for well over a year, joining my calls to enshrine the ERA in the Constitution. Your persistence and dedication to our fundamental freedoms made a difference. |
This fight is far from over – but I promise to stand shoulder to shoulder with you as we forge ahead. |
With gratitude, |
Kirsten |
