[net.women] Complete text of ERA

srm@nsc.UUCP (Richard Mateosian) (09/29/84)

*         In response to several recent requests, here is the complete
          text of the Equal Rights Amendment. I believe that this text
          has remained unchanged since it was first introduced  almost
          sixty years ago.

          1.   Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or
               abridged  by  the  United  States  or  by  any State on
               account of sex.

          2.   The Congress  shall  have  the  power  to  enforce,  by
               appropriate  legislation,  the provisions of this Arti-
               cle.

          3.   This Amendment shall take effect two  years  after  the
               date of ratification.
