SC House Speaker Opposes ERA Despite Push
South Carolina House Speaker Solomon Blatt, 77, vows to kill the Equal Rights Amendment and argues women already have equal rights. He warns that ratification could remove dowry and alimony protections and enable men to claim discrimination if required to pay alimony. The ERA faces slow House movement amid beer franchise bills and Senate delays, with supporters gathering petitions as opposition grows.
