False. The 20th, 22nd, and 25th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution address different issues.

  • The 20th Amendment deals with the terms of office for the President and Vice President and the short period between election and inauguration.
  • The 22nd Amendment establishes a limit on the number of terms a person can serve as President.
  • The 25th Amendment addresses presidential succession and disability, but it does not lay out the complete line of succession. The line of succession is primarily detailed in the Presidential Succession Act, not the amendments themselves.
