Abstract

The article provides arguments against the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) from Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith and an opinion piece by Emma Waters. Topics discussed include the claim that the ERA is unnecessary as women's rights have already advanced, concerns about the ERA's vague language and potential to impact privacy and safety, and the ERA's association with abortion rights.
