The 17th Amendment, ratified in 1913, established the direct election of U.S. Senators by the people rather than state legislatures, increasing accountability and representation. The 19th Amendment, adopted in 1920, granted women the right to vote, expanding the electorate and promoting gender equality in the democratic process.
