On March 22, 1972, the Equal Rights Amendment was passed by the U.S. Senate and sent to the states for ratification. The Equal Rights Amendment was to provide for the legal equality of the sexes and prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex.

The Equal Rights Amendment - which would have been the 27th amendment - failed to achieve ratification (by three-fourths - or 38 out of 50 - states). Because of this, women do not currently have equal protection under the U. S. Constitution.

“Just like freedom of speech [and] freedom of the press, a fundamental tenet of our society should be the equal citizenship stature of men and women, and that’s what the Equal Rights Amendment would do,” said Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in 2018.
