ERA

Read a random definition: imminently dangerous

A quick definition of ERA:

ERA: An abbreviation for Equal Rights Amendment. This is a law that says everyone should be treated the same, no matter their gender. It's like a rule that helps make sure everyone is treated fairly and equally.

A more thorough explanation:

ERA

ERA stands for Equal Rights Amendment. It is a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution that would guarantee equal rights for all citizens regardless of their gender.

One example of the ERA in action is the fight for equal pay for women. Despite laws prohibiting gender-based pay discrimination, women still earn less than men for doing the same job. The ERA would help to ensure that women are paid the same as men for equal work.

Another example is the fight for equal representation in government. Women are underrepresented in political office, and the ERA would help to ensure that women have equal opportunities to run for office and hold positions of power.

The examples illustrate how the ERA would help to ensure that women are treated equally to men in all aspects of life. By guaranteeing equal rights under the law, the ERA would help to eliminate gender-based discrimination and promote gender equality.
