We’re thrilled to see a claim based on the 28th Amendment. It moves forward what VoteEquality has asserted since the day Virginia ratified in 2020 when our team was still VAratifyERA: The Equal Rights Amendment IS our 28th Amendment. All Article V requirements in the U.S. Constitution have been met.
