Answer 1

The Amendment process was not made harder by the Constitution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is A) The Amendment process was made harder, now requiring that ALL the states must ratify any amendment.

The amendment process was not made harder by the Constitution. According to Article V of the Constitution, an amendment can be proposed by Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House and the Senate or by a national convention called by Congress at the request of two-thirds of the state legislatures. It must then be ratified by three-fourths of the states, either by state legislatures or by state ratifying conventions. Nowhere in the Constitution does it state that all states must ratify an amendment.
