That came across my news feed...why wont the archivist do her part? NPR said: "A senior administration official said that the archivist's role is "purely ministerial" in nature, meaning that the archivist is required to publish the amendment once it is ratified." And yes...the Republicans should absolutely show their hate towards women. I'll never understand such deep, generational misogyny... 🤦‍♀️

I'm waiting on Joyce Vance to comment. I'm sure she will. She'll have a much better understanding of the national archivist's obligations than I do. Anyone who opposes it, though, is demonstrating misogyny. Biden has forced their hand, there, which is pretty great. Trump will be pressured to order the national archivist to document the amendment, and if he dithers, people will say, "What? Since when do you care about what the national archivist thinks? Hello? Classified documents? Mar-a-Lago bathroom?"
