Readability Score: 13.1
The Equal Rights Amendment, first promoted decades ago, is about to have a 38th state ratify it. Problems remain, though, as Congress's deadline passed long ago, and some states that originally ratified it have since apparently changed their minds. Is the ERA still useful? What should happen next? (Note: This article does include a discussion of abortion and transgender issues.)

Why the Questions Matter - With lessons like our Current Events, the idea is to promote respectful discussion and debate in your classroom, to get your students thinking critically. That's why the questions included are actually the most critical part. Please read the article, and the questions, before you decide one way or another on a lesson.
It's all about the questions! (And if we left out a question you wish we'd asked...add it to your lesson!)
