I want me and the Equal Rights Alliance on this spot. An eclectic background suits me for changing the US Constitution.
As president of ERA Inc., I have become an expert at lobbying and marketing the Equal Rights Amendment that barely mised passing by 3 states’ ratifications by 1982. Because of precedent set and other substantive arguments, the ERA is now back and viiable and moving in America. I spearhead Florida’s bills before the legislature since 2003. The Alliance now claims 401 of the biggest, most influential organizations with about 295 000 committed ERA supporters in Florida and around the nation and internationally. We WILL get Florida ratified. Then two other states will rapidly follow suit. The ERA will then go to the US Senate and Houee for passage into the US Constitution. Finally, after more than 160 years of struggle–longer than that for women to get the right to vote, in 1920. The Alliance has mobilized, organized, publicized, fundraised the Florida public such that 88% want the ERA added to the US Constitution. No small feat for such a State of the deep South in many ways. Our http://www.RatifyERAflorida.net showcases our success due to our growth and expertise.
What do you say, will you add me/us to this spot?
Thank you for considering me.
