Summary
This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to repeal the Seventeenth Amendment, which currently provides for the direct election of U.S. Senators by popular vote. If ratified by three-fourths of the states, the repeal would restore the prior system in which state legislatures selected senators. The resolution includes a grandfather clause preserving the terms of senators elected before the amendment takes effect.
