This Constitution Week, a Reminder That Women Still Aren’t in Our Nation’s Founding Document
Although the ERA has been ratified by the required three-quarters of the states and all that remains is for Congress to pass a simple resolution directing it be placed in the Constitution, politicians continue to block its placement with political games.

Unpacking the Chaos of the Trump Years (with #SistersInLaw Hosts Jill Wine Banks and Kimberly Atkins Stohr)
Breaking news took on new meaning during Donald Trump’s term in the White House—from a ban on Muslims from entering the U.S. and locking children in cages at the border, to the end of Roe v. Wade and the elimination of important environmental protections. After Trump’s defeat in 2020, the “Stop The Steal” campaign took off, leading to more than 60 lawsuits challenging election results and the Jan. 6 insurrection. Notably, he appointed more federal judges than any other president save George Washington, including three to the U.S. Supreme Court.
To unpack the Trump era, the civil and criminal lawsuits, and much more, Dr. Michele Goodwin is joined by very special guests: Webby Award winning #SistersInLaw podcasters Jill Wine-Banks and Kimberly Atkins Stohr.
