Why does schlafly believe that the equal rights amendment will actually harm women?
Bezzdna [24]
It would degrade the role of wife and mother--The Equal Rights Amendment would secure women's place in the economy and therefore out of the home. 

Phyllis Schlafly believed the ERA would encourage women to enter the workforce instead of take care of their home and children. That role was the most important for women and they had the natural ability to do that job. The ERA would tear apart families and encourage immoral behavior among women. It would also force women to sign up for the draft which Schlafly and many women believed was an improper place for women.

Which of the following does not describe a precedent set by Washington?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

The presidency of George Washington began on April 30, 1789, when Washington was inaugurated as the first President of the United States, and ended on March 4, 1797. Washington took office after the 1788–89 presidential election, the nation's first quadrennial presidential election, in which he was elected unanimously. Washington was re-elected unanimously in the 1792 presidential election, and chose to retire after two terms. He was succeeded by his vice president, John Adams of the Federalist Party.


Washington had established his preeminence among the new nation's Founding Fathers through his service as Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War and as President of the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Once the Constitution was approved, it was widely expected that Washington would become the first President of the United States, despite his own desire to retire from public life. In his first inaugural address, Washington expressed both his reluctance to accept the presidency and his inexperience with the duties of civil administration, but he proved an able leader.
