     I hope the courts would have the sense to not interpret the masculine pronouns in the gendered sense considering that they have historically been valid in a gender-neutral context, but better safe than sorry in this regard.

Article III, Section 5 should read "they disapprove," not "they dissaproves."

A couple other things I found.  My eyes started glazing over the longer I read so I still could have missed something.  Tongue

Article 1

Section 8.

No citizen shall be subjected to warrantless search or seizure of their persons, homes, records, or possessions, and no warrants shall be issued without probable cause, supported by oath of affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Section 9.

No person accused of crimes under the laws of this Republic, or of the several Regions, shall be compelled to bear witness against himselfthemself, nor subjected to excessive bail, nor cruel or unusual punishment. Capital punishment may not be prescribed by a civilian court of law.

     The amendment is friendly. I will also propose Prime Minister Truman's suggestion as an amendment. Senators have 24 hours to object to these amendments.

FTR I feel like this is something that we should be able to pass as if it were regular legislation.  None of the proposed changes actually change the Constitution itself or its legal effects.

     This Amendment has enough votes to pass. Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.
