#28thAmendment
Unfortunately, the Archivist has stated that they will not publish it because they have been legally counseled to refrain from doing so. The ratification had a deadline assigned, the legal binding of which is in question, so unless or until Congress or SCOTUS say otherwise, it won’t be published.
If only he knew how she has been removing content from the national museum - to whitewash our history so that visitors don’t feel uncomfortable…He would be singing her praises
Kind of like Garland. Why not just keep him? I mean he made sure 45 never went to trial, not ONE of his co-coup plotters was ever charged, the pipe bomber “never found” AND he got a conviction on Hunter for crimes that no one else EVER goes to trial for. A true friend!
This country elected a felon, adjudicated sexual offender, classified document stealer, insurrectionist, racist and fascist but we can’t publish a ratified amendment because it’s not legal because of a random deadline! Enough already! Publish the GD thing!
The country can't move forward because we have a pack of cowards fighting off a pack of wolves and huge herd of dumbfucks crapping everywhere. I hope it doesn't become a violent class war, but I'm not holding my breath.
Breathe deeply and slowly.
Trump's corrupt court will strike it down. Well don't worry at least we have infrastructure. No bodily autonomy no healthcare no democracy. Biden screwed us.
That’s why we have been screaming for congressional action to remove the deadline. It will never get done in congress now. This should have been the #1 issue pushed by democrats the moment they overturned Roe.
Legal battles over something that would appear to be such common sense. Why is it always like pulling teeth to get us to do the right thing? I guess if there were $$ in it it'd be a different story.
Guess what... You don't come off as cool with this bs. Maybe he could put boxes in his bathroom and hide like a little baby and sell our submarine secrets to Australians and have a coup and have his fascist judges stall till billionaires lie to persons and not get prosecuted for RAPE like 45
If you don't understand by now the difference between a very few documents getting lost in the shuffle and instantly returned without argument, and massive loads of docs intentionally removed and hidden (or left in the open) and then lied about endlessly - what are you doing opining on this?!
The sad fact is, the Pubes do whatever they like and dare anyone to stop them (and nobody does).
Dems wring their hands and whine that it's against the rules, and the Pubes laugh in their faces.
Here's a thought. Trump and his team successfully threw sand into the gears of Justice for 4 years on his criminal convictions. Why not do the same here, delay any major ruling until the MAGA folks are dislodged and we return to a more just and sane way of operating?
Love Joe for continuing to fight for the people. Let it be known who the true Patriots are. Make Republicans sign their bigoted name for all of history to see. Thank you POTUS Joe Biden.
Q. As of January 27, 2022, 38 states have ratified the ERA. @tribelaw.bsky.social
has stated... 'the Archivist publishing the ERA is not what it takes to become law...' @tribelaw.bsky.social
The stories saying that the ERA, although duly ratified by 38 states as required by Article V, won’t become law until some functionary at the National Archives agrees to publish it, have no constitutional basis. I’ll be writing about this soon. Watch this space for a link. https://search.app/LLn9cfhPfmEw...
This goes against Proj. 2025. Stephen Miller won't like that. His mysogenist neanderthal mentality can't handle it. And Trump does whatever Miller tells him. The legal battles, however, may show MAGA females how Trump and his crime syndicate cult are intent on taking away their rights.
I'll be interested to hear the arguments against publishing it. Fifty years ago, when I was young and concerned that the Constitution stated "all men are created equal", expressly omitting women, I was told not to worry, that "all men" meant "mankind, all individuals".
The argument is already laid out above: there was an expiration date attached and the required number signatories was not acquired before expiration on 22 MAR 1979. Expiration dates have been upheld as valid.
Equal rights is bullshit its always been bullshit capitalism is designed to give one class all the rights and resources while fucking over the other class
If you are a capitalist you can legally kill people for profit if your working class you can't even legally use self defence against murderers
Pretty sure it'll go to the SC, and the SC will say women aren't people, bc otherwise they'd have to acknowledge women have bodily autonomy like men have
Now we need to donate to the ACLU because this will surely in up in court. Republicans will fight this tooth and nail. They don’t want Equal Rights for all.
Hopefully it drags them all down tho. Think about it. “Joe Schmo doesn’t believe women should have equal rights”. Won’t work for all. Might work against some.
Biden is a champion for working people. He's accomplished more for everyday Americans in just 4 years than all presidents put together in recent decades. We don't deserve him. 😢
Honestly, does this really mean anything significant at this point? 🤷♀️ The new regime plans to dismantle our entire system of government, anyway. We’re so screwed. If I didn’t have kids, I’d just jump off a cliff.
so many people over on that other site declaring this impossible and that now their guy will just be able to add amendments - are they really this ignorant of how things work or are they just stirring up the followers who are?
Right on Alex Wagner look at this it takes a woman to get the point across all of these men sucking up to wTrump lol masculinity lol people with low self-esteem are always looking for a high praise Trump, musk, Peter Thiel
Mostly symbolic, as legal challenges are expected due to issues like expired ratification deadlines & state rescissions. Not an exec order but his "belief" that the ERA has met constitutional requirements. The National Archivist previously declined to certify ERA, likely headed for judicial review.
But you know what? Fine. Force Florida Man and his Calvinball Court to give the middle finger to every woman in America one more time, dragging it out over a couple of years. Some of the more stupid women need another reminder, so let's give it to them.
This should have been done on day one, so it could have proceeded through the courts while he was president. Doing this at the very last minute almost guarantees that Trump’s admin will figure out a way to kill it. Thanks a lot Biden. This started back in 1923!!! He had time. Now we don’t.
Constitutional amendments are ratified by the 3/4 of states, as this one was. I can see it used in court cases alleging discrimination, but as to making it part of constitution, courts don't seem to have a role. Some white boys rule guys probably have their panties in a strangulation twist.
Yes maga and Project 2025 ignore/trash the law, and there may be an effort to call a new constitutional convention to rewrite it The orange king has said many parts should be thrown out, but he has been informed he cannot eliminate parts with executive orders. So much havoc at his fingertips.
I'm also trying to understand why if ratified in 2020 it's only now being added to the Constitution. My failure to understand the mechanics\thought processes for doing it now, don't outweigh my happiness at it finally being done. 😃
I read that in the past the reason for the archivist to publish it was so people would know about it. In this age of cable TV, Internet and more, publishing it by the archivist is not necessary.
On January 27, 2020, the Commonwealth of Virginia became the 38th state to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment. The American Bar Association (ABA) has recognized that the Equal Rights Amendment has cleared all necessary hurdles to be formally added to the Constitution as the 28th Amendment.
No, it expired years ago. They'd have to go through the whole process again and several states that had ratified now say they would not again. It's dead and buried.
Now I’m even more convinced this did nothing. Tribe argues against himself by saying ratification only goes one way, but that the time limit is non binding. Both can’t be true.
In NOW v. Idaho, the Supreme Court held that the ratification deadline expired, so Idaho’s revocation was moot.

Amen. but I am waiting for oh it doesn't mean anything crowd to come only. I really wish Biden would tell ppl to fuck off and kiss his old ass and not do anything. But you are correct it is a big fucking deal.

According to on theory there was a deadline during which 38 States had to accept the ERA which passed some time ago.
However there is a rival opinion saying that no such time limit exists and as long as over 2/3rds of States have ratified the ERA it is now a part of The Constitution.
It’s hard to be overjoyed in this time of such uncertainty but I AM overjoyed. I have been waiting since 1973 for this. Thank you President Biden and everyone that made this (finally) a reality.
Yay! The required number of states have ratified it and all Constitutional requirements met. The US Archivist has just refused to publish it, as the Constitution requires. President Biden publicly telling the archivist to do what law requires, this Amendment is 28th in all future publications.
It amazes me that this man’s age was debated more than an equally as elderly, but wildly more inappropriate character who we witnessed act criminally was the candidate he was facing and we couldn’t rally. We are here because many of you have NOTHING to say and need to fall in line. You’re your enemy
So did many other presidents. The situation in Gaza wasn’t made by Biden but he did broker a peace deal between Gaza and Israel which wouldn’t have happened if he had stopped the arms deals.
Respecfully, other people's criminal actions cannot justify one's own. If he had stood up to Bibi and stayed no rather than running political cover contrary to the world, this would never happened. Did he do good things? I guess. That doent excuse genocide. Sorry, that's my honest opinion.
That isn’t how the world works. If he had stood up to him or attacked him other countries would have taken advantage & attacked the United States bc that’s the only way Bibi would have stopped w/out negotiations
A sadly true take. More Jimmy Carter advice and less Obama advice letting Israel run wild would have served Biden well. Biden and Carter actually had a falling out over any criticism of Israel. Didn't stop Jimmy., thankfully.
Maybe you should have run for the presidency since you seem to have all the answers. Fucking so many armchair presidents, armchair lawyers, armchair doctors in the United States of America who do nothing but criticize and spread further hate.
I think we all are exhausted at this point. I wish that ppl hadn’t fallen for the rhetoric and propaganda when it came to this as well. I also agree there are a ton of armchair professionals that happen to be our politicians
I get it! USA is at an inflection point. I respect & appreciate your perspective. I'm a foreign historian and have the luxury of seeing this situation from a different perspective. What you're experiencing is fascism. The next several years are going to suck. I have faith you'll come through this.
Thank you I appreciate it we are going to need a lot of strength and resolve to get us through hopefully only the next four years bc I worry it might be longer
I love Biden but I don’t believe he deserves the criticism like Netanyahu. I believe other countries were also helping them & didn’t receive criticism so I think he was scapegoated. I also believe ppl are in the right being upset abt the genocide that occurred.
We can't look at this as a zero-sum game: Trump evil, therefore Biden perfect. Did he do good things? Of course. Is he better than Trump absolutley! However his is a complex legacy, and, as with all leadership, there are areas that must be honestly critiqued if we are to learn and do better.
Getting angry at me for disagreeing with your perspective, doen't make my assessment incorrect. Alone amongst western powers, the Biden admin supportted and provided cover for the worst genocide so far witnessed in the 21st C. I speak as an officer who worked on the Rwanda war crimes investigation.
You don't understand the politics of the timing. MAGA is going to fight this hard and now they will have to own their fight against women while holding all branches of govt and can't blame Biden. The sunset clause is weak when states continued to affirm after the date. GOP knows this.
I’m hoping he has already discussed with the national archivist, so they can add to the constitution. From what I’ve heard, the Dems/POTUS have been discussing for a while.
It's meaningless and insulting. His job was to keep the soul of a nation. He appointed Garland and handheld Trump back into office. We had so many smart talented fighter candidates in the primaries. We ended up with appeasement of nazis.
His job had nothing to do with the 'soul' of anything. He was never going to not allow the thing to proceed according to the norms. Garland was a mistake, though.
This is not only a huge win for women rights but for transgender rights as well, I wonder how this will effect the current and upcoming anti trans laws
Important to note that he did not order the Archivist to publish it, and the Archivist has no intention of publishing it. Nothing has fundamentally changed.
Good, but it’s hard to believe we have to make a proclamation about something that is already the law of the land. I guess it’s for the Trumpers in back 🤦♀️
It’s not the same as having sent it to the archivist which officially makes it part of the constitution. It’s a supportive statement. Unless I’m missing something?
Now compare this amendment to the constitution that the people support, to the office of legal councils determination that presidents are immune from prosecution.
News Flash: this is false and misleading. This is Biden's opinion that it should be the "law of the land," but it is definitely not. His aides corrected his misstatement of the facts later."
Should it be, YES!
Is it, NO!
HOPEFULLY, it will be someday!
I'm so disappointed with Biden , he saw this ship (USA) heading towards a mountain and didn't push Garland harder to bring justice, just so nobody could say this is political. Not leading this country as far I can see .
Huh???
This could have been done well before the end of his mandate and Biden announces this NOW… hello..?!? For what ? To despair even more more the people … ?
I don’t get it … I don’t get it
ERA should have been part of constitution for years now. though it focuses on 'sex discrimination' which republicans could still ban 'trans people' etc etc because sex not "gender" which is dumb as shit
It's about protecting privacy of all, no matter what sex, either changed or born. The best part of Roe was privacy protection. Without it, we are all open to extremist laws and investigation, like what the Texas judge did by banning mife. Or future bans on IVF. Privacy is the most important thing.
A brilliant leader with utmost integrity. The last real President for some time to come! Thank you mr. President for your leadership and many many successes and accomplishments for the American nation. What a sad day for democracy and real leadership.
EVERYthing good will be challenged by the filthy trumpians.
The ERA now has a good chance of surviving.
How? That knowledge is written for us to pursue--it's more complicated than a simple post can make it.
I'm glad he did it. However, my question is: what good is an amendment if no one has the courage to uphold it? I'm asking for America because we have an insurrectionist becoming president in about 3 days
Legal folks say it will kick off a legal battle in the courts before the archivist truly puts in the constitution. I can’t believe how anyone or entity fighting this. F’n insulting
It’s not done-Infuriating
"A senior Biden administration official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the White House’s plans, said Biden was not directing the archivist to certify the amendment, sidestepping what could have become a legal battle over the separation of powers."🤬

Well, SOMETHING had to happen!
And now it will be at the forefront for awhile - as well as exposing those who do not want women to be regarded as actual humans.
So what. In a few days Trump will say the opposite. When will the Dems learn that passing laws is all that counts. That and not quitting like Kamala did by not doing a paper ballot recount.
A very very small part of me thinks they probably did/are doing that recount. We have a couple days left to see if they found a way to keep him out of office and they probably don’t wanna reveal anything until it’s solid😂🙃
Now courts will have to test this. FOR FUCKING YEARS. Until I can visit the U.S. Archives and see it as the 28th Amendment to the Constitution, it isn't real.
Of course Repuklicans will put up a fight. They don't want to give women equal rights. Misogynist fascist bastards as always. "Keep 'em down, uneducated, sick, broke, pregnant and scared". That's the fascist way.
Why do I get the feeling that this will be a slam dunk for them? I don't think they'll be wringing their hands over it. Hell, there's women I know that would agree they aren't equal and don't deserve to be treated equal.
And yet my Fox addicted 80 yo mom insists it’s a news organization and they have to tell the truth or the government would make them stop because it says “news”.

HE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!
If you are a capitalist you can legally kill people for profit if your working class you can't even legally use self defence against murderers
Halle-freakin'-lujah!!

THANK YOU PRESIDENT BIDEN! 💙
This is not legal advice.
Honestly, what does that mean?!
…which is why that didn’t stop other states from continually ratifying it past the false deadline…
…so there’s definitely going to be a huge, protracted court battle over this!
Biden needs to ORDER the archivist to officially publish it!

Does he really think the incoming "administration" gives a shit about laws?
I've never trusted women.
#not #factchecking
He's not even in the same galaxy as Carter or FDR.
You - You're doing it wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!
Otherwise, we should take stock of what our next plan should be.
