Please _join  our call for equality_ (http://bit.ly/call4equality) ! PDA 
members will be  lobbying with our sister United for Equality coalition  
members in the Senate Wednesday and Thursday this week.  We need your support! 
Your calls will  help raise awareness for the visits. See below for  
background information, a call-in script, and tips for a  successful call.
 
_PDA stood up_ (http://www.pdamerica.org/blog/view/pda-endorses-the-era/)  
for  equality with our  allies


National Director Tim Carpenter  said, "We strongly endorse Congresswoman 
Tammy Baldwin's  Resolution [HJ Res 47] to 'remove the deadline for  
ratification and clarify that upon ratification by three  additional states, the 
Equal Rights Amendment will be  added to the United States Constitution.'"

_PDA National Board Member Rep. Woolsey  said_ 
(http://woolsey.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=18&sectiontree=6,18&itemid=1051) : "It is with great pride 
that I stand with this  bipartisan group in support of the long-overdue 
Equal  Rights Amendment..... Here’s the text of the proposed  Equal Rights 
Amendment, 'Section 1: Equality of rights  under the law shall not be denied or 
abridged by the  United States or by any state on account of sex.'  Replace 
the word 'sex' with 'race', and there would not  be a single dissenting vote 
in the entire United States  Congress."
 
_Please  call_ (http://bit.ly/call4equality)  during working hours through 
July 1st. You can  follow up in about a week, and ask if your Senators have  
made any decision yet. For a direct line to your  Senators, _use  this 
action alert_ (http://bit.ly/call4equality) .

Tips for a Successful  Call
 
Ask to speak with the  Senator's staffer working on constitutional and/or  
women's issues. If that person is unavailable, ask to  leave a message on 
their voice-mail. Note: It's  critically important to stress that you're 
calling to  support a resolution removing the time limit  from the ERA, not the 
"start over" new ERA  legislation. Please limit your remarks to this  issue 
only. Include your own experiences which  pertain to the ERA. MORE
