The new resolution, H. Res. 891, introduced by Congresswomen Jackie Speier and Carolyn Maloney, will reflect the sentiment of the House that under the terms of Article V, the ERA is already part of the Constitution. It will ensure it is considered effective as of January 27, 2022.

Dear Members,
When you receive this edition of the Voter, the Florida legislative regular session will have ended.

Multiple bills to create Education Scholarship Accounts (ESAs) are moving quickly through the SC legislature.

Tell your senator and house representative that you oppose Education Scholarship Account (ESA) proposals due to concerns about affordability, accountability, and accessibility. Oppose these bills that would divert monies from public schools that must serve students who need more resources.
