AMENDMENTPROC

=**__THE AMENDMENT PROCESS__**=

The founding fathers knew that the Constitution would need to be changed as time went on. Therefor, they came up with the great idea of the Amendment Process.

//**STEP 1.**// To Propose the amendment either two-thirds of both the houses of congress, or two-thirds of the State Legislatures need to agree with the proposal.



When a Congressman is trying to have his Amendment proposal accepted, he should work with a Congressman of the opposite political party.


 * //STEP 2.//** After the Amendment proposal is accepted, it needs to be ratified. For the Amendment to become ratified three-fourths of the state legislatures, or three-fourths of the state conventions must ratify it.

Only **twenty-seven** of **ten thousand** amendments have been approved!
