Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Come on Dem Candidates! Endorse ERA Now!
Health care is foremost on voters minds, but it not the only important issue. And it is not a guaranteed win/win for the Democratic Party given all the Medical Industrial Complex money being spent to influence the election.
There is another issue that needs to become a major focus of the primary and the general election. That is the Equal Rights Ammendment aka the ERA. Now that a court has ruled women must register for the draft the last obstacle to an equal rights law is gone.
