The Amendment Process

The amendment process is the formal, deliberately difficult procedure the Constitution itself sets out for changing its own text: an amendment must first be proposed, usually by a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress, and then ratified by three-fourths of the states before it becomes part of the Constitution. This process is intentionally hard to complete so that the Constitution's own core rules cannot be changed by only a temporary or narrow majority, but it is also not impossible, since the Constitution has actually been amended 27 times since it was first ratified.
