What is the Amendement process?

Answer 1

The first method is for a bill to pass both houses of the legislature, by a two-thirds majority in each. Once the bill has passed both houses, it goes on to the states. This is the route taken by all current amendments. Because of some long outstanding amendments, such as the 27th, Congress will normally put a time limit (typically seven years) for the bill to be approved as an amendment (for example, see the 21st and 22nd).

Close. The amendment process has two steps, proposal and ratification. Official proposals can be made by 2/3 of Congress or 2/3 of state legislatures (so Congress can be involved). Ratification occurs with a 3/4 vote of the state legislatures or a 3/4 vote of state conventions made up of delegates (not necessarily legislators) elected by the people.

Answer 2

The amendment process is when people make changes to the United States Constitution.
The process goes like this:

1. Congress proposes the amendment
2. The proposal goes to the state legislature
3. 3/4 of states must approve,
4. If all of the above happen, the amendment will become official.
