![]() Image uploaded from a quicklink (Image by Unknown Owner) Details DMCA | Article V of the Constitution says that there are two ways to amend the Constitution. The one that has been successful so far is that both Houses of Congress must pass a resolution with the exact same language by a two thirds majority. Once that resolution has been passed, then that resolution is sent to the states where three quarters of the state legislatures pass the amendment (or not). Once that is done it becomes an amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This method has been followed successfully twenty-seven times for over two centuries. |
