1. Right to Life Amendment: Guarantees the right of the unborn to live by outlawing abortion, except cases wherein the mother's life is in danger or she is at risk of serious permanent injury and there is no other way to save the mother. It would also completely outlaw abortion after twenty weeks of gestation, because that is when the fetus becomes viable (i.e. can survive outside its mother with medical help. Thus, a cesarean section would be performed and the baby would be put on life support.)

2. Congressional Term Limit Amendment: Limits Senators to two terms and Representatives to six terms, and overall time of service in either house of Congress to twelve years.

3. Balanced Budget Amendment: Except during times of war formally declared by Congress, the federal budget should not exceed twenty percent of the United States' GDP and not exceed federal revenue.

4. Judicial Oversight Amendment: Congress should have the power to overturn Supreme Court decisions with a two-thirds vote in each House. (The Supreme Court is without question the most powerful of the three branches, so much so that the only way to overrule the Supreme Court is with a constitutional amendment.)

5. Interstate Commerce Amendment: Clarifies that a good or service must actually be sold across state lines in order to be regulated bt the federal government. (The gross misapplication of the Interstate Commerce Clause of Article I, section 8, is what has enabled the unimpeded growth of the federal government. Under the current interpretation, the mere potential of a good or service to cross state lines is sufficient to justify regulation by Congress. An example would be selling a tomato you've grown in your garden at a farmer's market. Just because the person who buys it might take it to the next state over, Congress can regulate it.)

6. Nullification Amendment: The States may nullify federal laws upon the concurrence of two-thirds of the State legislatures.

7. Preservation of Election Integrity Amendment: All federal elections shall be held on one day set by Congress, and all votes shall be cast in person after valid photo identification has been presented on said day. Additionally, require a person to be a citizen and at least eighteen years of age to vote.

8. Freedom of Religion Amendment: Clarifies freedom of religion, so as to prevent its interpretation from meaning freedom fromreligion. Ensures the right freedom of religion in public institutions, such as school prayer.

9. Birthright Citizenship Amendment: Ends birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens. Only the children of citizens or legal aliens will be granted citizenship at birth.

10. Oversight of Executive Agencies Amendment: Mandates Congressional review of the necessity of federal departments and agencies every fifteen years. (Many federal departments and agencies are either unnecessary or redundant, meaning Congress should review whether their existence is really necessary.)

11. States' Rights Amendment: All powers not explicitly delegated to the federal government by the Constitution are reserved by the States, or the People. (This would reinforce the principle that the sovereignty of the United States originates with the States, not the federal government, and would place things like welfare and other wasteful spending out of the preview of the federal government. If California wants to waste its money doing it, fine by me. But why should Texas or Wyoming have to go along with it?)

12. Amendment to Reinstate Indirect Election of Senators: Repeals the 17th Amendment and reestablishes election of Senators by the state legislatures. (The 17th Amendment largely defeats the purpose of the Senate, as it was meant to be a check on the popularly elected House to prevent the implementation of impulsive policies and what Madison called the tyranny of the majority.\

13. English as the Official Language Amendment: English shall be the sole official language of the United States, and mastery of it shall be requisite for obtaining naturalized citizenship. Additionally, all public schools in the United States shall be required to teach classes in English.

14. Enumeration Clarification Amendment: Only citizens shall be counted in the census for purposes of apportioning Representatives, but legal aliens may be counted for the census's other purposes. The illegal aliens counted in the census shall be deported.

15. Anti-Gerrymandering Amendment: Provides that the election of all Representatives shall be done at an at-large basis (by the whole state), which prevents gerrymandering. (Essentially, if you live in Alaska, you'd vote for one person to be your Representative; if you live in New Hampshire, two people; Texas, 36. A solution to make voting simpler in these cases would be allowing candidates to form tickets, similar to how you vote for both President and Vice President. Thus, if you lived in Texas, you could vote for a ticket of candidates, or perhaps several smaller tickets.

16. Literal Interpretation Amendment: The Constitution and laws of the United States shall be interpreted literally as written. Also outlaws the Doctrine of Evolving Standards, which is used by liberal activist judges to rewrite the Constitution.

17. War Powers Amendment: Every Use of Force Authorization passed by Congress shall have a sunset clause that does not exceed five years from the time it is passed, and may be renewed if Congress deems it necessary. This should, in theory, prevent forever wars.

18. Impeachment Clarification Amendment: Officers of the United States may only be impeached for statutory crimes that are not process related committed during his continuance in office and shall have corrupted or influenced his actions made in execution of his duties.

19. Judicial Term Limit Amendment: Limits federal judges to 15 years of service, and allows Congress to set a mandatory retirement age.

Granted, a lot of these amendments would only work if The Swamp was drained and the Deep State obliterated. This is why I view them in much the same way as the Reconstruction Amendments after the Civil War: They fix the problems that lead to the near-destruction of our country. Thus, they'd probably be passed after we take back our country.

I'd love to hear feedback and other ideas as well!
