Illinois rejects the ERA (1972–82)
On the Feminism and the Tunisian Revolution map as “Illinois says no”
1972–82 — Illinois, the only northern industrial state that never ratified, votes on the ERA almost every year; its three-fifths rule for amendments defeats majorities in 1975 and 1980. In June 1982 seven women fast for 37 days at the Capitol.
