Is there a legislative mechanism for repealing the amendment?
Article 5 talks about making amendments, but does not say anything about repealing existing laws. If an amendment directly contradicts another amendment (de facto repeals it), then is it legal?
The 18 Amendment was repealed by the 21 Amendment.
This case is without precedent.
