ERA PROPONENTS "Editor: "Unable to achieve ratification of the Equal Rights amendment by constitutional means, we ERA proponents have asked a federal court to declare unconstitutional the section of the new Illinois Constitution which requires three - fifths majority for ratification of a constitutional amendment. The court declined to do this and dismissed our case. However, we are going to bring a new case with the same objective. "The Illinois Constitution, Article XIII, Section 3, requires the Illinois Attorney General to take this oath of office: 'I do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of the State of Illinois.' Unfortunately, in the case which was just dismissed, Attorney General William Scott did not 'support .the Constitution of the State of Illinois,' but permitted those of us who brought the lawsuit to make use of his written opinion which agrees with our argument that the new Illinois Constitution is unconstitution­ al. In so doing, the Attorney General has defaulted in his constitutional duty to the people of Illinois, who adopted this new Constitution only four years ago. "Until ERA came along, no challenge to this section of the Illinois Constitution had ever been made. This section was adopted unanimously by the delegates to the Constitutional convention which drafted the Constitution. There is nothing in the U.S. Constitution or in any U.S. Supreme court decision which prohibits or questions the three-fifths majority rule. The U.S. Constitution itself requires a two - thirds majority in Congress for passage of a constitutional amendment. "Attorney General Scott opposed the litigation brought by ERA proponents only on other grounds, namely, the three - fifths rule adopted by the Illinois House of Representatives. But he did not dispute our effort to invalidate a section of the new Illinois Constitution. "Probably the reason why Attorney General Scott is not fulfilling his constitutional duty to support the Illinois Constitution is that he has joined the organization called MEN FOR ERA. We call on Attorney General Scott to absolve himself of this clear conflict of interest by resigning from MEN FOR ERA, and causing his name to be removed from their letterhead. "We further call on Attorney General Scott to fulfill his constitutional duty by supporting the Illinois Constitution in any new suit which may be brought by the ERA proponents.
