Part 2/7:
In a surprising move during his final days in office, Biden has made a contentious claim regarding the Equal Rights Amendment, announcing it as the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This assertion, however, has been met with skepticism, particularly by constitutional scholars. The Equal Rights Amendment was initially passed in 1972 but failed to secure the necessary ratification from the states within the stipulated deadlines. Critics argue that Biden's proclamation lacks solid legal foundation, rendering it largely symbolic rather than constitutional.
