Rally to Oppose the Erosion of Rights Amendment (S.F. 37, ERA)
Wednesday, May 08, 2024 at 03:00 PM · Capitol Rotunda in St. Paul, MN
Join us for a momentous day of prayer, unity, and advocacy as Minnesotans come together to oppose S.F. 37, the Erosion of Rights Amendment (ERA), and champion the protection of religious freedom for all faith groups and individuals. In a state where diversity is celebrated, we must stand united in safeguarding the rights of individuals to practice their beliefs freely and without fear.

Specifically, we will be coming together to pray for and urge legislators to oppose the so-called "Equal Rights Amendment" that fails to protect Minnesotans from discrimination based on religion, could constitutionally mandate legal abortion up to the moment of birth, and promotes harmful gender ideology.
