The resolution proposes the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the United States Constitution by the Florida Legislature. Initially approved by Congress in 1972, the ERA aims to ensure that equality of rights under the law cannot be denied or abridged on the basis of sex. Although the amendment had a ratification deadline that was extended to 1982, recent legislative actions in 2021 by the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate have sought to eliminate this deadline retroactively, highlighting the ongoing relevance of constitutional equality for men and women.

The resolution outlines the specific provisions of the proposed amendment, which includes the enforcement power granted to Congress and a two-year timeframe for the amendment to take effect following ratification. It emphasizes the importance of achieving constitutional equality, noting that many other nations have already accomplished this goal. The resolution concludes with a directive for the Secretary of State of Florida to send certified copies of the resolution to key federal officials, signaling Florida's support for the ERA.
