The Covid-19 situation. Life needs to get back to normal.
5. Which do you believe is the most important of the 27
Amendments
The most important of the 27 Amendments is the 13th Amendment. Withought this I would still

participated in and made so many national and global accomplishments for the U.S. Freeing
slaves was the best decision ever made for the United States of America.
