Amending.
Article 3 A+
The main idea of Article 5 is about the process and requirements for amending the United States Constitution. It outlines how amendments can be proposed and ratified either by Congress or through a Constitutional Convention, emphasizing the difficulty of changing the Constitution to ensure that it reflects the will of the people.
I believe it is the process of changing something that has already been previously established. The founders concluded that if something has already been considered, voted on and passed by the body, then it should be a little harder to undo it; otherwise matters settled by narrow margins could conceivably shift along with small changes to the roll of legislators, or with some otherwise minor development seized upon by an overzealous minority. An example is the process of amending the Constitution. Three fourths of the states must approve an amendment before it becomes law. No other legislative vote is needed, and no veto from any branch of government can stop it. But getting three fourths of the states to agree to something is not easy.
The General Assembly proposes an act to amend the Constitution
After the preamble, the U.S. Constitution is divided into seven sections known as Articles. These Articles outline the framework of the federal government, including the legislative branch (Article I), the executive branch (Article II), the judicial branch (Article III), and the relationships between states (Article IV). They also detail the process for amending the Constitution (Article V), the supremacy of federal law (Article VI), and the ratification process (Article VII). Each Article establishes the roles and powers of government officials and the rights of citizens.
