HCR 14 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Urges for the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment

This Missouri legislative resolution urges the President and Congress to formally recognize the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) as the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It states that three-fourths of states have ratified the ERA, meeting the constitutional requirement for ratification under Article V. The resolution specifically requests the President publish the ERA and Congress pass a joint resolution affirming it as the 28th Amendment. As a non-binding state action, it does not change federal law but calls for federal officials to complete the constitutional amendment process, citing historical precedent like the 27th Amendment.
