Summary

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language" class="extiw" title="w:English language">English</a> (en):  Ratification of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-seventh_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution" class="extiw" title="en:Twenty-seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution">27th Amendment of the United States Constitution</a>

   Ratified amendment, 1789–92

   Ratified amendment, 1873

   Ratified amendment, 1978–91

   Ratified amendment, May 19921

   Ratified post-enactment, 1992 to present

   Ratified twice (NC: 1789/1989; KY: 1792/1996)

   Didn't ratify amendment

1There is some uncertainty over which state's ratification was the 38th and thus achieved the neccessary three-quarters majority. At the time, Michigan's May 7 ratification appeared the 38th; however, documents discovered later indicated Kentucky had ratified the amendment in 1792, which if valid would imply Alabama's ratification was the 38th. The Archivist did not certify the amendment until May 18, 1992, after New Jersey and Illinois's additional ratifications.
