Amendment XX

Amendment XX

 The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3 day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin.


This is the Amendment that sets the terms the President and Vice President.  When their terms in office will start and also the other offices as well.  This is the guide for them.  They follow these steps when taking office and it is an important Amendment to know and be able to reference when wanting to know a little about the presidency.
