The Equal Rights Amendment is a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution designed to guarantee equal legal rights for all American citizens regardless of sex. It seeks to end the legal distinctions between men and women in terms of divorce, property, employment, and other matters.
“Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.”

REMOVING THE TIME LIMIT
When the 117th U.S. Congress convened in full for the first time on Thursday, January 21, 2021 resolutions with bipartisan support were introduced to remove the time limit placed upon the Equal Rights Amendment in 1972.
On Wednesday, March 17, 2021, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to remove the time limit with a vote of 222-204 on HJ Res 17. Attention now turns to the U.S. Senate and moving SJ Res 1 to the floor for a vote.
