whci of the following is nessasery to posspone a new admendment
To understand what is necessary to postpone a new amendment, it's important to have a basic understanding of the amendment process. In the United States, the process of proposing and ratifying amendments to the Constitution is outlined in Article V of the Constitution. Here's a simplified explanation of the process:
1. Proposal: An amendment can be proposed either by Congress or through a constitutional convention called by two-thirds of the state legislatures (currently, Congress has been the method used for all amendments).
2. Ratification: Once an amendment is proposed, it must be ratified by three-fourths of the states (either through state legislatures or by state conventions).
To postpone a new amendment, you would need to consider these steps:
1. Proposal Postponement: To postpone the proposal of a new amendment, it would require action from Congress or the state legislatures to prevent the amendment from being officially introduced. This could involve not scheduling the amendment for a vote or actively voting against it.
2. Ratification Postponement: To postpone the ratification of a proposed amendment, you would need to prevent three-quarters of the states from approving it. This can be achieved by lobbying against the amendment at the state level, encouraging state legislatures to reject it, or influencing public opinion and mobilizing opposition.
It is crucial to note that the actual process and requirements for proposing and ratifying amendments may differ in different countries or jurisdictions outside the United States.
