What this bill would do

This joint resolution seeks to establish the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. It states that the article of amendment proposed to the States in House Joint Resolution 208, 92nd Congress, is valid. The resolution asserts that the amendment is part of the Constitution because it was ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States. This action is to occur notwithstanding any time limit contained in the original 1972 resolution.
