The Twenty-third Amendment

"Section 1. The District constituting the seat of Government of the United States shall appoint in such manner as the Congress may direct:
A number of electors of President and Vice President equal to the whole number of Senators and Representatives in Congress to which the District would be entitled if it were a State, but in no event more than the least populous State; they shall be in addition to those appointed by the States, but they shall be considered, for the purposes of the election of President and Vice President, to be electors appointed by a State; and they shall meet in the District and perform such duties as provided by the twelfth article of amendment.
Section 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."


The Twenty-third Amendment gives people in the District of Columbia the right to vote for electors for the President. Before this Amendment was created people in the District of Columbia were the only people in the United States that could not vote for an elector for the President (without which makes the vote useless). They are still the only people in the United States that don't have representation in Congress. I am guessing that problem will find its way into an Amendment at some point as well.

This is a picture of a license plate that brings up the issue of taxation without representation. Even with the 23rd Amendment people who live in D.C. don't have representation in Congress. At least after the Amendment they can be represented in part of the Government by the President.
