This amendment ensures that if Senators or members of the House of Representatives vote to raise their own salary, only members of the next Congress will benefit from that increase.



I found it interesting as in this song all the amendments are included in a simple, simple and practical way.

Amendment #24

This amendment is intended to prohibit a state from requiring voters to pay a tax as a condition of voting in a national election.


As in other videos this senor explains what is the amendment number 24. The before, during and after the adoption of said amendment. It seems interesting to me how he humorously teaches the constitution of the United States.


This photo I chose it as it shows the citizens in a protest by the poll tax.

Amendment #23

This amendment addresses the right of citizens of the District of Columbia to vote in the presidential elections.

This video explains how a citizen of another state can still vote. It uses characters from everyday life to explain the essence of Amendment 23.


This sarcastic photo pretends to ask the citizens that if they do not vote do not complain about the decisions that their rulers take.

Amendment #22


This amendment seeks to establish that no person may be elected to the Presidency more than twice. No person who has held the Presidency for more than two years of a period initiated by another person may be elected more than once.


This video in the form of a movie explains satirically how the amendment 22 is visualized by the citizens.





This article is about how Roosevelt won the presidential election for a third term and thus went beyond amendment 22.
