You can’t change the Constitution with a minority!!! 2/3 of the states must ratify any changes to the Constitution!!

Hi.

2/3 of the states must ratify

Isn't it 2/3 of Congress, and 3/4 of states?

I'll look it up to make sure...

No, 2/3rds of both the House and the Senate are necessary to submit amendments to the states (67%) but 3/4ths (75%) must ratify.

And to answer your other question, no states can’t just submit amendments to each other. They must come either from the Congress or from a Convention.

However, one of the amendments in Mark Levin’s book makes just this suggestion, an amendment to the Constitution to allow individual states to submit proposed amendments for other states to consider.
