USA: Companies express support for the Equal Rights Amendment
The Equal Rights Amendment is a proposed amendment to the US Constitution designed to guarantee equal legal rights for all American citizens regardless of sex. It seeks to end legal distinctions between men and women in terms of divorce, property, employment, and other matters and would provide a clearer judicial standard for deciding cases of sex discrimination.
Some companies have recently expressed support of the ERA, including KIND Healthy Snacks and Winston & Strawn.
