President Joe Biden’s declaration the Equal Rights Amendment is “the law of the land” likely only sets up more debates for Congress and the courts.

President Biden says he believes the amendment has met the requirements to be enshrined in the Constitution. Its history has been long and complex.

President Joe Biden announced Friday that the Equal Rights Amendment should be considered a ratified addition to the U.S. Constitution, making a symbolic statement that's unlikely to alter a decades-long push for gender equality.

President Joe Biden said Friday that the Equal Rights Amendment, first proposed in 1923, should be considered ratified and part of the U.S. Constitution.

President Joe Biden announced a major opinion Friday that the Equal Rights Amendment is ratified, enshrining its protections into the Constitution, a last-minute move that some believe could pave the way to bolstering reproductive rights.
