2 Now she's organizing with ERA-Now, Sign4ERA and Driving the Vote for Equality Tour #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote
And here’s the thing:
- The ERA was approved by both Houses of Congress
- The ERA has the states. 38 have ratified.
- The ERA has the support. More than 80% of Americans support it.
#Georgetown, TX holds an important place in the history of women's suffrage and the broader fight for women's rights.
Our visit was hosted by local partners including the @League of Women Voters of Williamson County, @Southwestern University, and @LarkandOwlBooksellers. #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote

#Seguin #Texas An exciting visit at @Pecantown Books & Brew. Our host, owner Tess Coody-Anders, provided a venue with a constant flow of people signing petitions, hearing about the 1916 suffrage tour and learning what they could do to help the ERA. #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
They fought for the vote.
We’re fighting for full equality.
Different century. Same energy.
And we’re not stopping halfway.

Not someday.
Not eventually.
History is happening right now—at every stop, every rally, every conversation.
The question is: are you in it?

They drove 10,700 miles for the vote.
We’re driving to finish the job.🚗
The ERA is ratified. The only thing missing? Recognition.
History didn’t stop in 1916—and neither will we.
Hop in. Let’s go.

Why Signing the ERA Petition Still Matters — And Always Has
Throughout the Driving the Vote for Equality Tour, a question occasionally surfaces: Why does signing the national Equal Rights Amendment petition — Sign4ERA.org — matter? 1/8 #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
Then she read a proclamation in which she recognized Alice and Nell's 10,700-mile transcontinental journey . Visit the website with the daily diary to get the full story, and some excellent photos. drivingthevote.org/daily-diary/... #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
#Lafayette In Lafayette, the team set up on a busy corner near the local post office. Passing cars honked in support. Pedestrians stopped to listen, ask questions, and sign. Many were surprised to learn that gender equality is still not explicitly guaranteed in the Constitution.

#Georgia - Augusta had long faded into the distance and Atlanta was an hour and a half away when we decided it was time for lunch. We were in the South. Why not barbecue? Our GPS found Heavy's Barbecue. It took us off the Interstate to a narrow country road. #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote
"She loves to drive these old cars. That’s how they met — they were in a car show together, both drooling over the same old cars.” Read the story of our antique automobile team #ClassicCar #SaxonCar #Drivingthevote drivingthevote.org/daily-diary/...?
Montgomery, Alabama,
*The Freedom Rides Museum: The ABCs of the ERA
We arrived at the Freedom Rides Museum to be greeted by a reporter from WSFA, and a photographer from the @MontgomeryAdvertiser. Both took shots of the Saxon and people signing the Sign4ERA.org petition. #DrivingtheVote
#WomensHistoryMonth ERA Now is taking the tour back on the road to urge Congress to affirm that the Equal Rights Amendment is the law of the land. #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
#Atlanta One hundred and ten years later, the Golden Flyer II came to Atlanta through a tornado warning and a blinding snowstorm. The welcome was warm. (see our post about Heavy's BBQ!) #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
In 1916, two women drove 10,700 miles across America to win the right to vote. Now, 110 years later, we're taking the wheel again — because women still have no guaranteed equal rights under the U.S. Constitution. #DrivingtheVote
The Equal Rights Amendment is at the knife edge of history
ERA Now is taking the tour back on the road to urge Congress to affirm that the Equal Rights Amendment is the law of the land. #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights
10,000 miles across the USA, in a Saxon Motor Car, fueled by passion, Alice and Nell advocated for women’s suffrage in every town in 1916. Jeryl R. Schriever shares the remarkable story of the first women to ever drive across the country and back. drivingthevote.org/books #ERANow #drivingthevote
Call to action - go to www.drivingthevote.org and sign the petition — because all of this, the history, the speeches, the photographs, the tears, the laughter, the drive — comes down to one million signatures and a Congress that finally acts. #DrivingtheVote

At Suffs, the Musical at the Belk Theatre in #Charlotte, NC; the Golden Flyer Parked. The line formed again. And the conversations that unfolded in that line were extraordinary. Young people and older people. Diverse audiences. #drivingthevote
the woman who was beaten and jailed and force-fed and refused to break. What surprises many of them is what Alice Paul did next. Read the full story at Drivingthevote #Sign4ERA #DrivingtheVote #ERANow #EqualRights drivingthevote.org/daily-diary/...
The show ends with Alice Paul winning suffrage — and insisting the fight isn't over. That the ERA is next.
