Why is this medication prescribed? Prescription omeprazole is used alone or with other medications to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition in which backward flow of acid from the stomach causes heartburn and possible injury of the esophagus (the tube between the throat and stomach).
The most prominent of those activists was Alice Paul, a suffragist and women's rights leader, who first wrote and proposed the amendment in 1923, three years after the passage of the 19th amendment guaranteeing women the right to vote in the United States.
(The only right that the Constitution specifically affirms to be equal for women and men is the right to vote by the 19th Amendment of 1920.) The 14th Amendmentâs equal protection clause has never been interpreted to guarantee equal rights for women as the Equal Rights Amendment would do.nother reason to reopen the debate and adopt an Equal Rights Amendment is the current discrimination between women and menâs wages. It has been shown that women are paid 77 cents to every dollar earned by men fifty years after President John F. Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act.
