HOW IS AMENDMENT MADE?-

An amendment can be proposed by a two-third vote of both Houses of the Congress, or, if two-thirds of the States request one. The amendment will, then be ratified by three-fourths of the State legislatures, or three-fourths of conventions called in each State for ratification.

2 METHODS:-

Article V of the Constitution provides two ways to propose amendments to the document. Amendments may be proposed ;-

  • by the Congress, through a joint resolution passed by a two-thirds vote.
  • a convention called by Congress in response to applications from two-thirds of the state legislatures.
