This article is accurate. Despite the recent scare that the ERA could be revived, the federal courts declared that it legally died in 1979. Attempts in Illinois and Virginia to belatedly ratify the ERA are nothing more than virtue signaling. The Archivist of the United States will return any Letter of Ratification from a state's Secretary of State with a memo quoting the federal court decision killing the ERA four decades ago.

If they want to insert abortion-on-demand-and-without-apology into the Constitution, they'll have to get two thirds of each House of Congress to approve it and send it to the states for ratification. That won't happen, not even in the House of Representatives.

Exactly. This is just Democrats being Democrats, i.e. mentally deranged, pandering malcontents.
