What I will be tallking about are The Amendments and what they are. The ability to amend the Constitution is one of greatest ability. It allows the Constituion to grow or adjust to different times and changing ideas. The amendment process is an example of Shared Powers. Amendments can be proposed by either Congress or the states but, for a proposed amendment to become part of the Constitution it has to be approved by 3/4 of the states.The 13 14 and 15 amendment were adopted after the Civil War. They abolished slavery, extended the rights guaranteed in the Constitution to all Americans no matter what state they live in and, and prohibit the votes being denied because of race or color.

Amendments can be requested by the states or the Congress. The first Amendment is freedom of speech, religion, press the ability to assemble and start a petition. This change allowed people to worship, speak, and rebel against the government in a peaceful manner. The tenth amendment is that any power not given to the federal government belongs to the states. This change gives the states a say in their government. The thirteenth amendment abolished slavery and was adopted after the Civil War. This change meant that people could not be sold or treated as property in the United States. The Amendments are a very important and give us freedom and fairness.

In this post I will tell you three of the twenty-six Amendments. The first ten Amendments are called The Bill of Rights. These Amendments spell out the liberties and rights all Americans have.
- The tenth Amendment says that any power not given to the federal government belongs to the states and to the people.
- The thirteenth Amendment abolished (got rid of) slavery. This Amendment was passed after the Civil War.
- The nineteenth Amendment gives women the right to vote in all state and federal elections.
As you can see this is not all of the Amendments. This is just three of the twenty-six Amendments of our country as I said at the top of the page.

I am going to tell you three of the twenty-six amendments. The tenth amendment says that any power not given to the fediral government belongs to the states and to the people so we have more say in what goes on. The nineteenth amendment gives women the right to vote so they had the same amount of say in who they want elected as the men. The twenty-seconed amendment states that the president can only be elected two terms so no president could be in office to long.

This post is about 3 Amendments out of 26. The first Amendment I will be talking about is the 1st Amendments. This Amendment gave us liberty such as freedom of religion, freedom of speech, a free press, and etc. The next one I'm going to talk about is the 7th Amendment. This Amendment gave the rights to people who were accused of a crime, the right to be secured in your home, and the right to a fair trial. The last one I'll be talking about is the 9th Amendment. This Amendment said that there are more rights than the ones listed in the first eight Amendments, and not listing them does not mean they don't exists and the rights of privacy is one of them. Those are 3 Amendments out of 26.

The first Amendment gives our freedom of liberties, like freedom of religion, freedom of speech, free press, right to assemble, and the right to petition the government when we want. The tenth Amendment says any power not given to the federal government is given to the states and the people. The nineteenth Amendment gives the women in every state the right to vote in federal elections (The nineteenth Amendment did not come in until 1919). Those are three of the twenty-six Amendments and the other twenty-three are just as important.
