Amendment 27, ratified in 1992, limits congressional pay increases until after the next election. This means that any salary adjustments for members of Congress cannot take effect until the voters have had a chance to weigh in on their performance in the next election cycle. Consequently, this amendment promotes accountability by ensuring that lawmakers cannot immediately benefit from their own decisions regarding pay. In essence, it helps to maintain a level of checks and balances between elected officials and the electorate.
