The Union Leader has a piece on a Constitutional Amendment that died years ago: the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment). The long and short of it is that didn’t pass within the time period set by Congress.
You want it passed (and yes, yet another Democrat political club being put back into “semi-play” on the 100th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment that gave women the Right to vote), start the process over per the Constitution.
Nobody and nothing gets a continuous bite at the apple for decades. Get the necessary votes in the US House and US Senate. Get the right number of States to agree to pass it per the Constitutional process for modifying said document.
In steps the head of the League of Women Voters. That organization whose name gives off the aura of “people VOTING” on decisions, right?
Er, not so much. She doesn’t trust the voters to make such a decision. Obviously, they won’t vote the “right way” according to her.
The League of Women Voters’ [Liz] Tentarelli said she would rather see the courts decide on the ERA. She worries that going through ratification again would resurrect old arguments, old divisions. “It could start exacerbating those differences rather than healing them,” she said.
THERE CAN BE NO DEBATE!
Er, isn’t that what voting is all about BECAUSE not everybody agrees with you and your cronies (and as we have seen, Democrats).
Sorry, the Democrat technique of using the court system to get what they want is old and stale. It’s one reason why people supported Trump and he delivered for them in taking away the Dems “super-legislature” and replacing it with…wait for it….actual judges that should be ruling on the black letter law.
I guess Tentarelli isn’t too concerned with what others think.
