Which of the following is the part of the ratification process in the U.S. Constitution that has never been used? Congress calls for a national constitutional convention

Question

Congress calls for a national constitutional convention

Congress votes by two-thirds majority vote to propose an amendment
Congress votes by two-thirds majority vote to propose an amendment

three-fourths of state conventions ratify an amendment
three-fourths of state conventions ratify an amendment

three-fourths of state legislatures ratify an amendment

Answer 1

The part of the ratification process in the U.S. Constitution that has never been used is Congress calls for a national constitutional convention. While the Constitution provides two methods for proposing amendments—one being a two-thirds majority vote in both houses of Congress and the other being a national constitutional convention called by two-thirds of the state legislatures—there has never been a national constitutional convention called under this second method.
