The Birnbaum Women's Leadership Center's 2026 Dechert Symposium: “Constitutional Equality: The ERA and the Promise for Reproductive Rights and Justice," organized by the ERA Project, explores the intersection of the Equal Rights Amendment and reproductive rights through constitutional, comparative, and practical lenses. With declarations from President Biden and the American Bar Association that the ERA is the "law of the land" as the 28th Amendment, wins at the local level as more states adopt ERA language into their Constitutions, and international actors setting new gender equality standards, this first-of-its-kind gathering examines how constitutional equality provisions can strengthen protections for bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom.
