It defined “citizenship” as anyone born or naturalized in the U.S. (this automatically granted citizenship rights to former slaves). States were prohibited from enforcing any law that took away the rights, privileges, and immunities guaranteed to U.S. citizens without first making certain that “due process of law” had been carried out. All persons were now guaranteed “equal protection of the laws,” regardless of who they were or what their race, religion, or country of origin happened to be. No person who served in the government of the southern confederacy during the Civil War was allowed to hold federal office. The U.S. government refused to accept any debts incurred by the Confederate States of America, including claims for the loss or emancipation of any slave. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:21:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406655 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406744 African American males were guaranteed the right to vote, and “race, color, or previous condition of servitude” could not be used as a reason to refuse anyone the right to vote. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:21:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406744 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406858 Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes on incomes. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406858 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406937 Election of Senators was granted to the people of each of the states. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438406937 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407016 The manufacture, transportation or sale of alcoholic beverages was prohibited. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407016 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407092 The right to vote cannot be denied because of a person’s sex. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407092 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407163 Shortened the period of time between federal elections (first week of November in even numbered years) and the day that officials were sworn into office. Called the “Lame Duck Amendment” because it gave “lame duck” officials (those who were not going to be sworn in, but were still in office) a shorter period of time to pass laws that tended to enrich their lives or the lives of their friends and political allies. Presidential inauguration day (when he/she is sworn in) moved back from March 4 to January 20. Members of Congress are now sworn into office on January 3 instead of March 4 of odd numbered years. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:14 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407163 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407239 Repealed a previously-ratified amendment; the Prohibition Era in America was over. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:20 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407239 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407317 President of the U.S. now limited to serving no more than two terms in office, and no more than a total of ten years (in the case where a Vice President moves into the presidency as the result of a vacancy in that office, and is re-elected to his/her own terms of office). ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407317 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407408 People who live in Washington, D.C. are allowed to vote for President and granted three electoral votes, the minimum number of Electoral College ballots.

States for the first time in the Constitution that the Vice President, when taking over the office of President after a vacancy occurs, has all of the powers and responsibilities of the presidency. In case of presidential disability, the Vice President and a majority of his/her Cabinet officers may send written notice to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate that the President of the U.S. is “unable to discharge his duties and responsibilities,” the Vice President becomes Acting President. When the President is able to resume the duties that his office requires, he may send written notice to the congressional leadership that he is returning to his office. If the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet officers disagree, they may send written notice to the leaders of Congress. Congress will then decide who should take office as President. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407572 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407640 Established the minimum age requirement for voting in federal elections at eighteen years. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407640 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407748 Congress may pass a law increasing their salaries, but cannot collect it until after there has been a federal election. ]]> 2020-01-30 19:22:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438407748 bshepler https://padlet.com/bshepler/evwfx8kzoajv/wish/438418176 -there is equal protection under the law
