Amendments to the Constitution can be proposed by

Answer
A
the president and the Supreme Court.
B
Congress and the Supreme Court.
C
Congress and state legislatures.
D
the president and vice president.

Explanation

Article V of the Constitution allows amendments to be proposed either by a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress or by a convention called by Congress after requests from two-thirds of the state legislatures. The president and Supreme Court have no formal role in proposing amendments, so “Congress and state legislatures” is correct.
