Equal Rights Amendment? Didn't that expire 30 years ago?

Many groups believe that Congress could extend the limit by majority vote, and the 4 states that have rescinded their support had no basis to do so. Based on that, there are regular attempts in IL and other non-ratifying states to approve the 1972 amendment.

That would rather defeat the purpose of having an expiration date, no?

That would be my thought, but others believe differently.
