Write 4 Rights

 

STEP ONE, ACTIVATE OTHERS

Starting TODAY, send emails, postcards, texts, or anything you want (or call them) to as many friends as possible using this script:

STEP TWO, JOIN TOGETHER

On December 10th, the 101st anniversary of the Equal Rights Amendment being introduced to Congress, contact the friends you activated and head to the nearest mailbox to drop YOUR note in the mail (postcard, notecard, artistic drawing, whatever). Be sure you include the wording you sent to your friends.

 

Send it to:
President Biden
 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, NW
 Washington, DC 20500

NOTE: Below is the printed postcard we are collecting from tourists in DC to add to the deluge. It is available in our SOCIAL MEDIA TOOLKIT and you can have it printed / print on a home printer.

EXTRA CREDIT

Submit an OpEd to let the rest of your community know that we are ONE EASY STEP AWAY from fixing the gender gap in our Constitution. Not a writer? Find a friend who is or better yet, band together with a few friends and contact a journalist or favorite blogger and ask them to write something.
