Whats next? Polygamy? Marrying children?

There’s a good possibility that the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) will be ratified in the Illinois House this fall. The Illinois House has a Democrat super majority.

The ERA Amendment states: [Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.]

ERA was ratified in the Illinois State Senate days before the spring recess. If enacted, left-winged extremists say ERA can continue where it left off in the ratification process. With the liberal climate in the Justice Department, anything is possible.

Ramifications of this amendment will affect every law pertaining to gender as well as Constitutionally protect perversion.

Illinois citizens should contact their legislators and urge them to oppose ERA. (I was shocked to see ‘conservative’ Illinois State Senators support this Amendment.)

The seven year window on ERA ratification expired decades ago. Congress added three years to the window, a federal court in Idaho ruled that unconstitutional, and the Supreme Court declared the case moot, refusing to grant cert.

It's dead. To bring it back to life, Congress must pass it again with a two-thirds majority in both Houses. That will never happen.
