Dec. 16 (UPI) — A group of more than 120 House Democrats signed a letter asking President Joe Biden to call on the U.S. archivist to recognize the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution despite the deadline passing decades ago.
The group, led by Reps. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Cori Bush, D-Mo., wrote in the letter the amendment, which would enshrine sex equality into the Constitution, should be published despite not receiving enough state ratifications by the 1982 date set by Congress.
