Tell us when this was last used successfully- and how long states have to ratify. By all means.

WTH are you talking about?

The last proposed amendment by Congress that was ratified was the 27th amendment in 1992, and was proposed in 1789.

The 26th amendment was proposed in March 1971 and ratified in July 1971.

Congress decides how long each proposed amendment has to be ratified before the proposal expires.

The last proposed amendment to not be ratified was proposed in 1978 and expired in 1985. It was proposed to repeal the 23rd amendment and give the District of Columbia full Congressional representation in Congress.
