NO: It almost became amended but it didn't because of the efforts of the "STOP ERA" movement. The E.R.A was one of the very few proposed amendments that got the necessary 2/3rd vote in Congress but unfortunately failed to obtain the ratification of the other required 38 states.

~It did however gain a significant victory by getting Congress to give them an extension of their ratification deadline, which at that time, was the first time Congress had extended the time limit since it began placing time restrictions on ratifications in 1917.
