The issue was over the time limit qualifiers to the approval process. She wanted to ignore this and I argued that a C'l amendment should show broad societal accord at the same time. She had the grace to acknowledge the point.
I also argued that the statutory interpretation dictum that statutes should not be read so as to make them meaningless meant that the ERA would be used to impose "comparable worth doctrine" because, as Doug notes, equal pay is already the law.
