It was first proposed more than 200 years before it was ratified. Several states passed similar laws making legislative pay raises inapplicable to current or past legislators. It was ratified in 1992, but COLA's (cost of living adjustments) have never been legally challenged under the amendment.

It was one of the twelve amendments submitted under the "Bill of Rights" in 1790, and one of two that were not ratified then.
