Happy Victoria Day to our Canadian members & friends!
Victoria Day is a federal Canadian public holiday. Today we honour Queen Victoria, who is known as the "Mother of Confederation". The holiday has existed in Canada since at least 1845, originally celebrated on Victoria's natural birthday, May 24.

For her, sign the petition to demand Congress recognize the ERA. Equal rights under the constitution. No Rollbacks. www.sign4era.org

The next generation shouldn't have fewer rights than the last.
One day she'll be astounded to read that in the past, women didn't have equal rights in the constitution.
Let's make that future happen sooner—for her.

Congress can act to recognize the ERA. They have the bill, they just need the will. Let's strengthen their spines with a million signatures. Link to the petition in the first comment.
