The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was formally proposed in 1972. It provided: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex." For more than ten years, supporters and opponents conducted campaigns in all states. When the time limit for approval elapsed in 1982, only 35 of the required state legislatures had voted in favor. Women in a sorority at a nearby college now wonder if another campaign should be launched to pass the ERA. How would you advise them?

    I agree with the women in the sorority college there should be another campaign launched to pass the ERA.

    Explanation:

    If we passed the ERA then it would guarantee that all citizens, regardless of sex, are treated equally under the law. Currently, the 14th Amendment gives equal rights to all citizens but does not explicitly mention women.

    I would advise them to gather their forces quietly so that no one can stop it midway, then get a petition and if the petition doesn't work then a protest should start where a lot of people could back them in the protest for the ERA.
