Thanks to all the Senators and Representatives who have signed on as sponsors and co-sponsors. Let’s work to make N.C. the second Southern state to ratify the ERA!
Lori Bunton
Co-President, ERA-NC Alliance
We were very excited to participate in this Town Hall on January 21st, as we prepared for the re-introduction of bills to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment in the NC General Assembly.
If you missed it, you can still watch it right here!
ERA-NC Alliance Board Member, Adrienne Spinner, along with her daughter, Vivienne, urge President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice-President Elect Kamala Harris to certify the Equal Rights Amendment as the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
The ERA-NC Alliance has joined forces with VoteEquality.us to highlight equality-minded candidates in 2020. Below you’ll find North Carolina voter resources and tips.
This year we’re urging voters to be especially mindful to make a voting plan – COVID-19 has raised the urgency of secure absentee voting and how to stay safe while voting in person. We’ve also conducted our 2020 Candidates Survey to find out which candidates will support North Carolina’s ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment, so voters can know which candidates have an equality mindset.
