Action Alert: Call Your Senators: No SCOTUS Confirmation Before Inauguration
Sign NOW’s Petition: Join the National Organization for Women (NOW) and sign the petition to demand #JusticeForAllNOW: No SCOTUS Confirmation Before Inauguration!
Women are still not guaranteed equal rights under the U.S. Constitution. NOW has made ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) a top priority because equality in pay, job opportunities, political structure, education, health care, including reproductive health care, and education will remain elusive without a guarantee in the U.S. Constitution. An ERA would also make it significantly more difficult to roll back progress on women’s equality: an acute concern in our current political climate. NOW supports an intersectional interpretation of the ERA that uplifts the needs of all women including immigrant women, low-income women, women of color, women with disabilities, and the LGBTQIA+ community.
