FAQ
A number of states, led by Virginia, passed laws which cut off state funds and closed any public school that attempted to integrate. Eventually the Supreme Court overturned these laws based upon the “equal protection” portion of the 14th Amendment.
The amendment's first section includes the Citizenship Clause, Privileges or Immunities Clause, Due Process Clause, and Equal Protection Clause. The Citizenship Clause broadly defines citizenship, superseding the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott v.
The Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution contains a number of important concepts, most famously state action, privileges or immunities, citizenship, due process, and equal protection—all of which are contained in Section One.
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The amendment's first section includes the Citizenship Clause, Privileges or Immunities Clause, Due Process Clause, and Equal Protection Clause.
Congress has always acted when called upon to raise the debt limit. Since 1960, Congress has acted 78 separate times to permanently raise, temporarily extend, or revise the definition of the debt limit – 49 times under Republican presidents and 29 times under Democratic presidents.
Section Five of the Fourteenth Amendment vests Congress with the authority to adopt “appropriate” legislation to enforce the other parts of the Amendment—most notably, the provisions of Section One.
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
All Debts contracted and Engagements entered into, before the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be as valid against the United States under this Constitution, as under the Confederation.

2 Congress, first in. The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments.A clause in the 14th Amendment is being cautiously considered as a possible emergency fix as the US economy hurtles toward the looming threat of default. President Obama made every sincere effort to negotiate and at every turn was rejected. The debt is the debt, and the Constitution is the law. The 14th Amendment says the debts are recognized. I believe the 14th Amendment states the President has the responsibility to pay the bills of the US even if it goes above the debt ceiling. President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Democrats are running to finish the job. Joseph Robinette Biden Jr is an American politician who has been the 46th and current president of the United States since 2021. Harris was the first South Asian American to serve in the U.S. Senate.
