The Thirteenth Amendment, ratified in 1865, made the three-fifths compromise meaningless by abolishing slavery in the United States. The compromise, which counted enslaved people as three-fifths of a person for representation purposes, was rendered obsolete as it relied on the institution of slavery. With the abolition of slavery, there was no longer a need for such a compromise regarding representation in Congress.

Which amendment made the three fifths compromise meaningless?

The Three-Fifths Compromise became meaningless with the ratification of the 14th Amendment in 1868. This amendment established that all persons born or naturalized in the United States are citizens and mandated equal protection under the law. It effectively disregarded the previous counting of enslaved individuals as three-fifths of a person for congressional representation, thereby affirming the principle of full citizenship for all individuals.
