True

False

Answer 1

False. The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was first proposed to Congress in 1923, but it did not pass both the House and Senate until much later. The ERA was initially introduced by Alice Paul and the National Woman's Party. It did gain significant support over the years, but it didn't pass both chambers until 1972.
