 Medicine is for the people.
 It is not for the profits."

How to add an Amendment

There are two ways to propose and ratify amendments to the United States Constitution as defined under Article V.

Two-thirds of both houses of Congress can vote to propose an amendment. Also, two-thirds of the state legislatures can ask  Congress to call a national convention to propose the adding of amendments.

To ratify amendments, three-fourths of the state legislatures must approve them. Another option are ratifying conventions in three-fourths of the states must approve them.

The Supreme Court has stated ratification must be within "some reasonable time after the proposal."

Starting with the passage of the 18th amendment, Congress set a definite period for ratification.

A time period of seven years was established in the case of the 18th, 20th, 21st, and 22nd amendments.

However,there has been no determination as to just how long a "reasonable time" can or should be for passage of a new amendment.
