I thought to ratify the constitution it requires a convention of states to do so? That Congress and senate can make laws but states are the only ones allowed to change the constitution?
It takes 34 states to call for a convention of states and 38 states to ratify an amendment proposed at the convention. conventionofstates.com
Congress can propose an amendment but needs a 2/3 vote to send to all the states. Then 38 state legislatures need to ratify.
