Chief Justice designate William Rehnquist warned in a May 4 1970 memo that the Equal Rights Amendment could destroy the American family and blur gender distinctions. He questioned support for an amendment he called highly dubious and predicted harm to families through reduced protections and changes to social security and military draft rules. Judith Lichtman called the memo an extreme anti woman position and a sign of hostility to women's rights.
