Question

n one paragraph, summarize the Twenty-Sixth Amendment and describe the change it create

Answer 1

The Twenty-Sixth Amendment, ratified in 1971, prohibits the federal government and the states from denying or abridging the right to vote of citizens 18 years of age or older on account of age and authorizes Congress to enforce the provision by appropriate legislation; by lowering the national voting age from 21 to 18, it enfranchised millions of younger Americans—largely in response to arguments during the Vietnam War that those old enough to be drafted should be able to vote—and thereby expanded the electorate and made age-based exclusion of 18–20-year-olds from voting unconstitutional.
