#ERANow

Our movement first came together to launch the #ERANow campaign to bring the Equal Rights Amendment to the national spotlight. We know the ERA protects our communities from attacks on their rights, lives and bodies by politicians. But a constitutional amendment protects our rights, no matter who is in charge.#ERANow calls on the U.S. government to put the Equal Rights Amendment in the United States Constitution. Publication of the ERA would enshrine the following 24 words in the U.S. Constitution: “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” Once published, the U.S. Constitution will explicitly prohibit sex discrimination, which includes discrimination based on sexuality and gender identity. This would finally put women and queer people in the Constitution, and protect abortion, gender-affirming care, and more. A constitutional amendment is something now President can overturn.An amendment to the Constitution needs passage by 2/3rds of Congress and ratification from 38 states. The ERA has met those requirements.

THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT

The Equal Rights Amendment is the comprehensive, permanent tool we need to defend abortion and LGBTQ+ rights.

Statement: Attacks on Young Organizers Must End, Statement on the Targeting of Students for a Free Palestine

04/09/2025We stand against and unequivocally condemn the targeting of student activists fighting for a free Palestine. We strongly condemn the arrests of Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, Alireza Doudi, Momodou Taal and all student organizers whose immigration status and courage to stand up against injustice has been exploited by the Trump administration’s agenda to thwart and suppress a popular movement’s struggle for justice. These abhorrent assaults on people’s fundamental rights directly assault not only individual rights, but the core democratic values that should protect all voices, particularly those of young people and marginalized communities. Students, as our future leaders and change-makers, must never be silenced or targeted for exercising their right to express their views and stand against US-backed genocide.Young people, especially students, have historically stood at the forefront of social movements, driving change long before larger society accepts movements for justice. They are often the catalysts for progress, challenging systems of injustice and pushing for a better future. It remains crucial that we support and protect their right to speak out, as their voices are essential in shaping the world we live in. In this moment young people, especially young students of color, must be protected.This is a call to action for all feminists and organizers who believe in justice and equality. We must rise up, join the student divest movement, and demand accountability from those who seek to suppress free expression and justice movements. It is essential that we protect the rights of students, especially those from marginalized communities. This is not just about one person or several students, this is about defending the principles of democracy, freedom, and human dignity for everyone and challenging ongoing U.S. mass violence.Moreover, we stand against the ongoing genocide in Palestine. The systemic violence and oppression being carried out against the Palestinian people must end. We cannot remain silent in the face of these atrocities. We call for an end to the violence, now. Let us stand together in solidarity, ensuring that no one—especially students—is silenced in the pursuit of justice, freedom, and dignity, and a world without genocide.

Statement: Trans folks are under attack by the Trump Administration. We must fight back.

02/28/2025Donald Trump has started his second term as President by attacking our most vulnerable communities via executive orders and actions. His administration is trying to both demonize and disappear transgender, non-binary, and gender expansive people by rolling back hard-won rights, creating administrative chaos, and criminalizing bodily autonomy, gender-affirming care, and inclusive education. These attacks have created de facto travel bans for certain gender expansive people with gender-corrected passports, caused healthcare providers to stop offering gender-affirming care services, limited classroom content and interactions that respect people’s pronouns and identities, and emboldened cultural and institutional transphobia and discrimination. These executive orders and actions are unacceptable. They infringe on our basic rights and make vulnerable communities even more unsafe as transphobia and gender discrimination continue to gain traction. We must continue to disrupt these narratives and demand that institutions do not comply with transphobic orders and directives.We condemn these attacks on our trans siblings and the scapegoating of queer communities. We know that intersectional feminism demands valuing, respecting, uplifting, and working with transgender and nonbinary organizations and leaders. We will continue to empower gender expansive leaders and members in our organization and take action together to resist these transphobic attacks.The attacks on trans, non-binary, and gender expansive communities by politicians emboldens greater violence against transgender and non-binary people. As we witnessed Trump’s first term led to a dramatic increase in hate crimes and identity-based attacks, now this rhetoric is connected to current attacks on queer and transgender people. In the month since Trump’s inauguration multiple transgender people of color have been murdered. We honor the lives of Sam Nordquist and Tahiry Broom, two Black transgender people who deserved to live safely but faced violence, torture, and targeted murders based on their identity as trans people.This is happening while simultaneously trans people, especially young people, are being targeted by mass state violence. Intersectional feminism demands bodily autonomy for all people and that includes gender affirming care. As grassroots feminist youth organizers, we are very aware that these attacks are focused most heavily on trans and non-binary students and young people as classrooms, college health centers, and university hospitals have become central locations in the fight for gender expansive rights. Our generation must not back down. We must resist these attacks, combat these anti-trans narratives, and defend gender-affirming care, as it is a life-changing and life-saving resource for queer people of all ages.Transgender, nonbinary, and gender expansive people have always and will always exist, and have always and will always be leaders in the fight for gender justice. We call on all feminists to fight back against the Trump administration’s dangerous, transphobic executive orders and actions.We demand the Trump administration immediately reverse the attacks on trans people. We the peoples of the United States condemn these actions, we will resist, and will not comply. We demand not only the reversal of these attacks but gender justice NOW.

STATEMENT: This International Women’s Day, We Demand: Stop the Attacks on Trans and Undocumented Women – #FeministsFightBack

On International Women’s Day 2025, Feminist Generation, a movement partnership of Young Feminist Party and The Feminist Front, is taking action against the right-wing attacks threatening our communities and demands Donald Trump rescind his orders attacking trans folks and undocumented people. Under the banner #FeministsFightBack, this International Women’s Day, we are calling on all feminists to mobilize in defense of trans people, especially trans women, undocumented people, and undocumented women, who are facing escalating violence, discrimination, and attacks.This International Women’s Day 2025, we call on feminists everywhere to take action and resist this Administration. Organize in your communities, disrupt systems of harm, and show up for trans and undocumented communities.This International Women’s Day, March 8, 2025:◦ We demand an end to anti-trans attacks, immigrant detention, deportations, and all forms of gendered violence.
◦ We demand institutions DO NOT COMPLY with these orders attacking trans and undocumented communities.
◦ We demand everyday working people challenge the administration as it strips our rights and rapidly erodes pillars of democracy.The MAGA agenda, driven by white supremacy, cisheteropatriarchy, and xenophobia, has targeted our most marginalized communities with dangerous legislation and rhetoric that strips away rights, dignity, and safety. Trans women are being criminalized, denied safety and healthcare, and attacked in public spaces. Undocumented women face family separation, detention, and deportation, while facing both the violence of gender injustice and the immigration system. These are not isolated attacks—they are part of a coordinated effort to erase, control, and dehumanize our people.We refuse to stand by while our communities are under attack. We say to this government and to larger society. Stop targeting trans and undocumented women NOW.Feminism that does not fight for trans and undocumented women is not feminism at all. The fight for gender justice is inseparable from the fight for racial, economic, and migrant justice. We will not allow the far-right to define who deserves safety, dignity, and belonging. We reject the fear-mongering, the policy violence, and the deliberate attempts to pit marginalized communities against each other. Instead, we stand united in radical solidarity, building collective power to resist and dismantle these oppressive systems.Feminism is not just about representation or inclusion—it is about fighting for the liberation of all people, especially those most at risk. Together, we fight back. Together, we win.

Statement: The status of the equal rights amendment

02/17/2025Before leaving office, President Biden declared that the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) had met all necessary requirements to become the law of the land. After years of organizing from The Feminist Front, Young Feminist Party, and numerous other organizations, we won this recognition of the ERA as the 28th Amendment from the President of the United States for the first time in the 101-year history of ERA organizing.This happened because thousands of everyday people rose up to demand #ERANow. Thousands took actions with us from banner drops, die-ins, civil disobedience, calls, letters, lobby visits and more. This HUGE win for our movement has progressed the fight for equality and justice under the law but the fight is NOT over yet.To gain the ERA’s protections against sex and gender discrimination and protect women and LGBTQ communities we must now win the fight to implement and enforce the 28th Amendment to advance gender, racial, and queer justice for all. Just three weeks into the Trump presidency, the urgent need for the protections the ERA can provide is clear. ERA advocates are strategizing around federal implementation of the Equal Rights Amendment. As founding partners of the #ERANow campaign that helped push President Biden to declare the Equal Rights Amendment as the law of the land, the Feminist Generation movement is helping to lead strategy around the next steps in the fight for equal rights for all.Actions we are pursuing to support the Equal Rights Amendment include:- Pushing State Legislatures to affirm that the Equal Rights Amendment is the law of the land- Organizing for the twelve remaining states to ratify the federal Equal Rights Amendment, sending a powerful message that all of America demands and deserves equality under the law.- Pressuring State Attorney Generals to affirm the Equal Rights Amendment is the law of the land as chief legal officers in their states.- Passing expansive State Equal Rights Amendments in nearly half of all U.S. states which still do not guarantee protections against sex and gender discrimination in their state constitutions.- Demanding the U.S. Congress remove the arbitrary deadline on ratification and affirm the Equal Rights Amendment to bolster our position against future legal challenges.- Urging the National Archivist to perform the ministerial duty of ERA certification and publication, as directed by the White House, to bolster our position against future legal challenges.The success of the #ERANow movement shows the power of when the people come together. Our generation refuses to back down, it’s time to build feminists futures for all.

March 8th: Feminists fight back

International Women's Day (IWD) has deep revolutionary roots tied to socialist, labor, and transnational feminist movements across the world.
