The 27th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which prohibits Congress from allowing its members to give themselves immediate pay raises, was not overturned but rather ratified in 1992 after being proposed in 1789. Its long delay in ratification led to widespread interest and debate about congressional accountability. The amendment stands as a reminder of the importance of checks and balances in government.
