Via Mark Crispin Miller's News From Unerground, I've just learned that Florida State Representative Arthenia Joyner (Tampa) has filed the ERA Ratificiation Bill (HCR 8005), which would guarantee equal rights for men and women. Here's more information on the bill from the Florida House of Representatives webpage, including the full text of the bill, which is also available from News From Underground.
Miller also calls attention to the recent Senate vote that denied additional spending for the federal home heating program (here's the Associated Press report). With home heating costs scheduled to increase by an average of over $300 this year, many families are going to be facing some difficult financial decisions this winter.
More later, maybe, when I've had a second cup of coffee.
