:marseydisgustnotes: COMMUNITY NOTED In a even more r-slurred than expected move, Biden say the ERA is ratified, Even though it isn't??? This seriously is r-slurred and beyond parody.

Community Note by @Impassionata

The Constitution does not specify a time limit for states to ratify the ERA and 38 states have ratified it. The dramatic call is to assert that it is in fact the law of the land. Women will now be drafted.

Its an attempt to trigger a legal fight. Doing it just before he leaves office is intentional, he wants the legal fight to be Trump's not his.

The constitution doesn't explicitly authorize congress to set a ratification deadline but in 1921 SCOTUS decided it implicitly does. Given how many self-professed textualists now sit on SCOTUS is a pretty good time to challenge it.

If SCOTUS reverse their decision in Dillon v. Gloss then it immediately comes in to effect, it hit the requisite number of ratifications 25 years ago.

is doing some heavy lifting. Literally everyone who is not in the screeching harpy activist class has agreed the deadline was legitimate and expired before it was ratified

We have more history where amendments couldn't have a deadline then we do that they could. SCOTUS just invented it, there isn't even a hint of OI in the decision.

I'm not sure what good people think it would do in $CurrentYear. Federal law already includes everything it would include and the 14th is regularly used as a stand-in ERA.

interesting, do you know if this would require women to register for selective service? or if there are any cases in the last 25yrs that would need to be reviewed because of this?

Decisions don't retroactively reverse previous decisions that are not in front of the court. People would have to go back to court and challenge laws based on the new amendment.

Probably not. SCOTUS rejected a review on 5th and 14th grounds unanimously in 2021.
