Celebrate July 4 by reciting the 1848 Declaration of Sentiments at Seneca Falls. Written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and others it is #Women’s announcement that they are fomenting a revolution bc of their exclusion from personhood in America’s foundational legal documents. Here are a few key provisions:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men and women are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness...”

Here’s how YOU can fight back to restore & protect all #Women’s rights:

Women's rights are under attack like never before. SCOTUS erased constitutional rights for pregnant women in #Dobbs & #TitleIX was destroyed in 2020 when most sexual misconduct on campus became legal./1 These vitally important rights for women cannot be fixed by Congress or by Biden. Indeed, Biden's recent announcement that he plans to fix the Trump-era 2020 Title IX regulations is misleading; his boondoggle 700 page proposal will not restore Title IX to its full potential. /2

On the 25th anniversary of #jonbenetramsey’s death please speak out against the silly idea that someone other than the parents is responsible. Evidence against the parents is overwhelming. That said, prosecuting John could be tough bc he can point the finger at Patsy. /1 Whenever 2 suspects stick together they can avoid prosecution if the evidence implicates both. They become each other’s reasonable doubt. It’s a well-known defense tactic called the cross finger-pointing strategy. Each person is the plan B suspect for the other./2

Interesting developments in #ERA litigation. I was on a call with the parties & the judge two weeks ago in the Alabama federal case, when the lawyer for the AGs from AL, LA & SD told the judge they were dismissing the case with the agreement of the Archivist. This was AFTER ... a group from Oregon filed a motion to intervene on behalf of women & in favor of ERA. The judge had not yet allowed the Oregon people to intervene when the AGs & Archivist filed a notice of dismissal of the case on 2/27/20. The Oregon people nonetheless filed an objection to ..

@barbarabradleyh @TheAtlantic (1/3) This article is dangerously uninformed. Rape kits RARELY help & mostly weaken cases for victims by forcing disclosure of consensual sex partners. This normalizes violations of rape shied laws & victims constitutional privacy rights as precondition to prosecution. BAD POLICY @barbarabradleyh @TheAtlantic Here’s some data on how few rape kits actually help. Testing shd occur ONLY in small % of cases where results are relevant & only AFTER a hearing to protect victims’ due process & privacy rights. Studies show victims don’t report for fear their privacy rights will be violated!
