Call your state senators and representatives and urge them to VOTE YES on ERA!

After women’s rights activists came to rally, march, and lobby at the Illinois State Capitol on Tuesday, SJRCA 4, the Equal Rights Amendment, passed out of the Senate Executive Committee.

It’s time to take action! Please call your state senator and representative and urge them to VOTE YES on SJRCA 4, the ERA. You can call them at 217-782-2000 or find more contact info HERE. Call, email, and tag your legislators on social media.

The ERA needs only two more states for ratification. It’s time to give women in the US the right of constitutional equality. It’s long overdue!

 

Good afternoon and Happy Spring!

Call Senators Dick Durbin and Tammy Duckworth today and URGE THEM TO BLOCK Neil Gorsuch for SCOTUS!

Neil Gorsuch has a long history of hostility towards the claims of workers, consumers, children, immigrants, LGBTQIA people, incarcerated people, people with disabilities. He has shown a track record of siding with billionaires and big corporations.

He is not a supporter of women’s rights, will not protect their access to birth control, nor their constitutional right to abortion through Roe v. Wade.

We need 41 Senators to block Gorsuch.

URGE Durbn and Duckworth to filibuster this nomination

Senator Dick Durbin: 202-224-2152

Senator Tammy Duckworth: 202-224-2854
