SCOTUS overturns 100 years of speech law

Quote:And, failing that, congress can initiate the amendment process. The SC has no power over amendments which are constitutional by definition.
I was curious roughly how long it takes from the time an amendment is proposed till the time it is accepted. So I looked it up on
Wikipedia. Without looking at the link take a guess at when the most recent amendment, passed in 1992, was proposed.

I should point out that I recognize that this is the exception and not the rule. Generally it only takes a couple of years.
