Although the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) had strong popular support when it passed both the House and the Senate in 1972, it failed to become a constitutional amendment because the feminist movement had made so many gains in eliminating gender discrimination.

<h3></h3><h3>Failure of Equal Rights Amendment (ERA)</h3>
  • The feminist movement had achieved so much in the fight against sexism in areas like employment and education that it did not necessarily seem necessary for the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to pass both the House and the Senate in 1972, despite the fact that it had strong public support at the time. As a result, the ERA did not become a constitutional amendment.
  • The Equal Rights Amendment ultimately failed to be ratified by the required 38, or three-fourths, of the states by the deadline set by Congress because of a conservative backlash against feminism.
  • Because a state's legislature must pass it through both houses in the same session in order for it to be considered ratified, it failed in those states.

yaroslaw [1]
This is known as the Homestead Act .

During 1862, individuals were offered 160 acres of free land that they can use to start their own farm. This program created by the federal government gave away roughly 270 million acres of land. Most of this land was west of the Mississippi River. This act helped in changing the population of the Midwest United States.
