A constitutional amendment is ratified through a process that involves two steps. First, the amendment must be proposed, typically by a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Once proposed, the amendment must then be ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures or by conventions in three-fourths of the states. This process ensures that the amendment has widespread support before becoming part of the Constitution.
