THE 11TH AMENDMENT



"The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State."

Meaning: This amendment is stating that you give states certain sovereign and free judicial powers over certain national things as well as limiting their rights to sue states. If you live in New York you can't sue Missouri or any foreign states.

I chose this image because for one I like their cute mascots and it describes part of the 11th amendment without too much information. It shows that if someone is wanting to sue a state in another state it cannot happen unless, that person wanting to sue was in that state.

AMENDMENT VII " In suits at common law , where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved , and no fact tried by a jury shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States than according to the rules of the common law." Meaning: This amendment  basically protects citizens as well as ensuring that citizens have the right to have a courtroom whether is a common law or civil law court. This amendment also states that to sue someone it has to be 20.00 or more in the Unites States courtroom. This picture was quit funny and summed up a part of the 7th amendment stating that to sue it has to be 20.00! I think this is funny and understandably for kids.

22nd amendment!!;) "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.' Meaning: This amendment just states the amount of terms our president can have as well as our vice president, they created this amendment to prevent having just one ruler like a king or queen. This picture was humorous it shows uncle Sam with a watch letting our presidents know that time is up for their term!

TWENTY-SEVENTH AMENDMENT:) " No law varying the compensation for the services of the Senators and Representatives shall take effect until an election of Representatives shall have intervened." Meaning: This amendment states that those in Congress can't themselves a pay raise this also deals with the decrease in pay wages. This image was kind of ironic because it shows that our economy is messed up in  so many ways and instead of them doing things to improve it they think of themselves and just want more money that could go towards something else. This does a pretty good job of explaining the 27th amendment for dummies!:)
