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.

Commentary

The proposed 28th Medical Freedom Amendment is the necessary addition to the Bill of Rights within the United States Constitution. The Amendment is the opportunity to bring this nation together. This is a battle to determine the future of democracy and government’s role to protect society. It is a confrontation of wealthy corporate powers that ignore individual rights.

Wealthy lobbying groups, who also have co-opted Agencies of the Executive branch of government are determining our medical freedom and medical rights. This is a political issue that only we, the citizens, can correct with a massive response. It is our obligation and fulfillment of duty pledged by each citizen. This is our government governing us, not the Lord of the Manor.

Citizens can never fully trust its own government. It is the citizen’s obligation and responsibility to make sure that government is honest. We must secure our freedom and control of our destiny from the elitist forces seeking control over our health through the government. This is a treacherous time that transcends all political party lines. Passage requires friend and foe to come together, united. This is not a battle between Republicans and Democrats or any other political party. It is a battle between autocratic harmful dictatorship and personal medical freedom of each citizen.

In the process of coming together there will be disagreements on issues that the Amendment brings forth. It is no different than our disagreements based on opinions and visions of reality. The goal is to protect health freedom and all that it entails. That is the most significant goal. All other subordinate details will have to be determined based on protecting the meaning and integrity of the Medical Freedom Amendment.Those opposed to this inalienable right will produce 101 reasons why not to have this Amendment. However, there are over 335,000,000 reasons why we should. Each of us, every single person, deserves this protection of one's medical freedom.

There is great power in this action by unifying citizens for the common good and adding the long-awaited protection of individual medical sovereignty. This clearly defines our relationship to our elected government officials, government agencies, government departments,and courts in all future actions regarding the health of this nation.

Now is our time to protect ourselves, our families, and the future citizens of this great nation. Now is the time to act!
