[Peace-discuss] Help Stop Sexism!

"Yep, that's one of the issues we stand for, CJ.” What issue, Mike? Bringing all US troops home? 

PDA seems to me to be a sheep-dogging operation, retrieving disaffected Democrats for the Obama-Clinton neocon & neoliberal policies - more war and more inequality.  

I’m opposed to those policies. Regards, C. G. Estabrook

>> Dear Cg—
>> 
>> Progressive Democrats of America (PDA) is a feminist organization. We became one of the first national organizations to endorse and work for legislation to lift the arbitrary deadline from the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). We’re helping lead-sponsors Senator Ben Cardin and Representative Jackie Spier gain cosponsors to enshrine equality in the U.S. Constitution. In all honesty, we’ve been critically important to this effort.
>> 
>> PDAers Andrea Miller, Mike Hersh, and Stephen Spitz helped lead organizing efforts on Capitol Hill—arm in arm with the National Organization for Women (NOW), United For Equality, and our friends Maryland State Senators Susan Lee and Rieger Manno, (who is running for the open Maryland 6th District House seat). Together, we helped encourage Sen. Cardin to step up as the lead sponsor of the Senate “3 State” ERA resolution. We’ve organized events and mobilized support in D.C. and the yet-to-ratify states.

Please reply to this email with 1) whether you'll be attending, and 2) whether you can help volunteer.

>> PDA is working with these stellar activists in Nevada (who’ve ratified the ERA!), as well as leaders in Virginia, Illinois, and other states who are nearing ratification. Andrea with People Demanding Action are working with talented, tireless leaders including Cathy Paganelli Kaelin, Tammy Simkins, Eileen Davis, Marena Groll, Portia Boulger, Diana Danis, and many many more. We are making real progress toward full inclusion of women and girls in the Constitution. The Women’s March is dedicated to this cause!
