The correct answer is the 24th amendment

Step-by-step explanation:

The 24th Amendment, which was approved in 1964, expanded and ratified the right of all citizens to participate in elections by stating taxes could not be used as a requirement for elections. Indeed, before this amendment, some citizens were required to pay a poll tax before voting, which caused the vulnerable population such as African Americans could not participate in elections due to their economic vulnerability. In this context, after 1964 all citizens could participate equally without paying the poll tax. The excerpt presented belongs to this amendment because it mentions citizens could not be stopped from voting based on "failure to pay any poll tax or other tax."
