League of Women Voters/Spokane Area Education Fund
Eastern Washington ERA Research Project

The League of Women Voters/Spokane Area Education Fund helped sponsor Nancy Driscol Engle's "Debating Equal Rights in Eastern Washington: A Scholarly Study." The paper explores the sentiments for and against the Equal Rights Amendment in the counties of Spokane, Kittitas, Benton and Franklin during two dates deemed most likely to show heightened waves of activism on behalf of, as well as against, the ERA.

The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan organization that takes political action on governmental issues, based on the research and consensus of its members.
