But basically Biden announced announced that the Equal Rights Amendment is ratified.
From CNN: "The amendment, which was passed by Congress in 1972, enshrines equal rights for women. An amendment to the Constitution requires three-quarters of states, or 38, to ratify it. Virginia in 2020 became the 38th state to ratify the bill after it sat stagnant for decades. Biden is now issuing his opinion that the amendment is ratified, directing the archivist of the United States, Dr. Colleen Shogan, to certify and publish the amendment."
However, it had to be ratified by 1982, and that didn't happen. So that's why this is contested, aside from the objections people have with the amendment itself.
