    Six amendments adopted by Congress and sent to the states have not been ratified by the required number of states. Four of these, including one of the twelve Bill of Rights amendments, are still technically open and pending. The other two amendments are closed and no longer pending, one by terms set within the Congressional Resolution proposing it  and the other by terms set within the body of the amendment .



    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would strictly regulate the size of congressional districts for representation in the House of Representatives.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would strip citizenship from any United States citizen who accepts a title of nobility from a foreign country.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would make "domestic institutions" (which in 1861 implicitly meant slavery) of the states impervious to the constitutional amendment procedures enshrined within Article Five of the United States Constitution and immune to abolition or interference even by the most compelling Congressional and popular majorities.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would empower the federal government to regulate child labor.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    • Equal Rights Amendment (Ratification period, March 22, 1972 to March 22, 1979/June 30, 1982, amendment failed (†); ratified by 35 states)


    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would have prohibited deprivation of equality of rights (discrimination) by the federal or state governments on account of sex.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    <dl><dd><dl><dd>Would have granted the District of Columbia full representation in the United States Congress as if it were a state, repealed the 23rd Amendment and granted the District full representation in the Electoral College system in addition to full participation in the process by which the Constitution is amended.</dd></dl></dd></dl>

    Rolex Tissot and Omega were all present in the window display but it was a pair of vintage IWC wristwatches that called out to link me that day. One was cased in steel and the other in solid gold. I link don't remember if I was familiar link yet with the legendary hand-wound Caliber 89 inside but it didn't matter. I was instantly and completely smitten.

    My personal favorite watch from Bethenny's collection should come as no surprise The Rolex Daytona ref. 116505 in rose gold with diamond indexes swoon. I have been eying this watch in boutiques a lot lately so I was really excited to see that someone else loves it too! Bethenny link enjoys it specifically for the unusual diamond indexes which you so rarely see and link I couldn't agree more. You can find Bethenny wearing this watch often on her link Instagram feed.
