President Biden's claim that the Equal Rights Amendment has been ratified is misleading, as the amendment failed to meet the original and extended deadlines for ratification.
The ABA and various legal scholars may support the inclusion of the ERA, but Biden's assertion that it is now the 28th Amendment doesn’t align with constitutional requirements.
Blake noted that the situation is unusual, remarking on the rarity of an outgoing president announcing a new constitutional amendment in such a fashion.
While Biden believed the ERA reflected the will of the American people, the legal status of the amendment is complicated by rescindments and missed deadlines.
