False. Amendments to the U.S. Constitution are proposed either by a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a national convention called by two-thirds of the state legislatures. However, amendments are ratified by three-fourths (not two-thirds) of the states, which is equivalent to three-fourths of state legislatures or conventions in three-fourths of the states.
True or False
