Bill > HCR2010

This Concurrent Resolution formally ratifies a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution, known as the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which was originally passed by the U.S. Congress in 1972. The ERA, in essence, states that equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or limited by the United States or any state based on a person's sex, and it grants Congress the authority to enforce this principle through legislation. The resolution also directs the Arizona Secretary of State to send official copies of this ratification to the leaders of both houses of the U.S. Congress, signifying Arizona's approval of the proposed constitutional change.
