Statement

Date: May 8, 2018
Location: Springfield, IL
Issues: Women Civil Liberties and Civil Rights

Today, JB Pritzker marched in the Equal Rights Amendment Rally in Springfield and released the following statement:

"It's time for Illinois to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment," said JB Pritzker. "This is about declaring fairness and equality for women. While a majority of states support this commonsense amendment, Illinois remains on the wrong side of history. I urge bipartisan leaders to right this wrong and take a critical step to once and for all enshrine women's equality in our Constitution."
