2 of 3 10 amendments made it through Congress. They were ratified by the required ¾ of the states. They are known as the Bill of Rights. Each of the other 17 amendments to the Constitution have been introduced through Congress. Of interesting note: What the wrongly named Convention of States (COS) will never tell you is that the first two petitions to Congress calling for an Article V Constitutional Convention were for a general convention with no proposed amendments subject language. Not the specifically worded subject matter proposed amendments-convention call that the Conference of States organization tried to push through in the 1980s, or the general subject matter proposed amendments-convention call being pushed through the States by COS now.
