Question

Which issue was dealt with by the 17th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution?

Answer 1

Answer: direct election of U.S. Senators

Answer 2

The issue that was dealt with by the 17th Amendment of the United States Constitution was that the election of the senators would be done by the vote of the people of the states via the state legislature. For the first 125 years, it was not the case in the United States as the Congressional caucus directly elected the senators.
