Biden, What The Heck Do You Think Jimmy Carter Would Do Now? Publish The Blessed ERA!

[skews13.]

President Biden has a mandatory, Constitutional duty under Article II, Section (“§”) 3, the “Take Care” Clause, to ensure that laws are faithfully executed; here, the law is 1 US Code §106b. [1] This law makes it mandatory for the Archivist to publish all amendments forthwith, when she (or he) receives official notice from ¾ of the states that they have ratified it. [2] The publication of the ERA is mandatory, as it was ratified by 38 states on January 27, 2020, and fulfilled the requirements of Art. V. [3] Publication can be accomplished in minutes through an oral directive from the President to the Archivist or even a memorandum or an executive order.

As soon as it is published, the ERA can be used to fight all abortion bans (and get injunctions) and to overturn Dobbs because the ERA is the Textual Constitutional basis that Justice Alito claimed was not in the Constitution. See the ERA-NC Coalition’s Hail Mary Motion, that we filed in Dobbs, since CRR failed to bring the ERA to the Supreme Court’s attention, on May 16, 2022, as it explains why the ERA is the Textual basis directly to protect women’s reproductive rights and also why, by implication, it provides a Fundamental Right to Reproductive Choice.

The text of the ERA: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."

I have no objection to its addition, although I never thought the Constitution was ever "sex specific," i.e. only guaranteeing rights to men. It's supposed to apply to all citizens.

But how does that affect the issue of abortion? Not that I am arguing for or against this, but how does that prevent action to "protect babies?"

Is it the idea of "out of sight, out of rights?" Does it mean that a woman has the sole right to abort up to and including birth?

I bring this up simply to point out that the ERA does not seem to actually grant a woman the "sole right to choose."

I am open to clarification.

The ERA died, unratified, on March 22, 1979.

Even if a person recognizes the extended deadline of June 30, 1982, which I do not, the ERA still died, unratified, on that day.

No less a person than Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recognized that the ERA was dead, not having been ratified by sufficient States by the deadline.

The Archivist, Deputy Archivist and the President have all upheld their Constitutional duty by declining to proclaim a dead amendment.

Supporters ONLY Constitutional option is to begin over, from the very beginning, try to get the amendment through Congress and start the ratification process over from the beginning.

I agree.

However, I would still like people who supported this proposed Amendment to answer the questions I posed.

But how does that affect the issue of abortion? Not that I am arguing for or against this, but how does that prevent action to "protect babies?"

Is it the idea of "out of sight, out of rights?" Does it mean that a woman has the sole right to abort up to and including birth?

The president has no role in the amendment process. Whether he "publishes" it or wears it as a hat, nothing changes.

President Carter was a failure as a president, but not as a diplomat and humanist.
