The Second Amendment has not been changed since it was ratified. However, the force and effect given any words found within the US Constitution depend solely upon the interpretation given those words by the US Supreme Court.

What do you call a change to the amendment?

Another Amendment. Amendments may be changed only by a later amendment. If a particular amendment needs to be changed, it is not changed the way a law would be amended by deleting or adding wording. Amendments are changed by adoption of a later amendment that states that the prior amendment is changed in a certain way.


When was the sixteenth amendment ratified?

Never. In order for an amendment to be properly ratified, it must be ratified in its EXACT language, by 3/5 of all of the states. While it seems that enough states did ratify a variation of the amendment in some form or another, it was never ratified in its exact language by enough states. This did not, however, prevent it from being added to the Constitution, and becoming de facto "law". It was never properly ratified. There are various institutions offering enormous cash rewards to anybody who can prove otherwise, as of yet, no takers.


Which Constitutional Amendment set up the current system where U.S. senators are elected by popular vote?

The 17th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified on April 8, 1913, changed who elects U.S. Senators. From 1788 until 1912, each U.S. Senator was elected by the state legislature. Since 1914, each U.S. Senator is directly elected by the people of the state. Some states were appointing their U.S. Senators based on the popular vote for several years before the Amendment was ratified.

Yes, there have been several constitutional amendments aimed at removing voting restrictions since the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote in 1920. Notably, the 24th Amendment, ratified in 1964, prohibits poll taxes in federal elections, and the 26th Amendment, ratified in 1971, lowered the voting age to 18. Additionally, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, while not an amendment, significantly aimed to eliminate various voting barriers, particularly for African Americans.
