Colleen Shogan, the U.S. archivist, says too much time has passed and is refusing to insert the ERA into the Constitution. Shogan was appointed by Biden. If Biden were as ruthless as Trump, he would immediately fire Shogan and appoint someone who would carry out his wishes with the ERA.

There was a time limit when ERA was sent to the states for ratification, although it is slightly questionable if Congress could constitutionally impose a time limit. However, since Congress had clearly in years rescinded or sunset amendments not yet ratified, the time limit looks an absolutely legal automatic rescind or sunset. I believe any reasonable SCOTUS will interpret this way.
The declaration is a pure BS. Talking about from a party claiming defending democracy and Constitutional rule. Sad

Is there a time limit? If not they really should have one when they start these things.

The right thing to do, was to re-propose ERA in 2021 and dare any Rs to vote against it.
