Description:
Join us for a discussion on Prop 1, the New York State Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), that is on the ballot in November. The Panelists will explain what you need to know about the amendment and the legal protections and rights that it will afford all New Yorkers. Panelists will also speak to the history of the ERA in New York State, the process that was followed in order for the amendment to be placed on the ballot, and efforts to change the language on the ballot initiative to make it more accessible for voters. Further, the panelists will discuss why proponents believe it is important to pass the ERA and the movement that is opposed to its passage. Finally, attendees will learn about ways to spread the word and educate others about Prop 1.
