The fertility rate now is

History

Answer:

just slightly below the replacement population rate.

Explanation:

According to recent numbers, women in the United States aren't having enough babies. The replacement population rate, that is, the number of children a woman needs to have in order to keep the population the same, is 2.1. However, the latest data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention shows that the fertility rate in the US now stands at 1.72 children per woman, just slightly below the replacement population rate. The US rate had been a little under 2.1 since 1971, but in the last decade, it has fallen even more dramatically. The reasons for this are a cause for debate, but generally speaking, it is usually argued that it is a side effect of more and more women joining the workforce, thus having less time and desire to raise a family, and a lower number of teen pregnancies. Nevertheless, population in the United States keeps growing despite the low fertility rate thanks to immigration from other countries.

What is an amendment?
Tatiana [17]

During the debates on the adoption of the Constitution, its opponents repeatedly charged that the Constitution as drafted would open the way to tyranny by the central government. Fresh in their minds was the memory of the British violation of civil rights before and during the Revolution. They demanded a "bill of rights" that would spell out the immunities of individual citizens. Several state conventions in their formal ratification of the Constitution asked for such amendments; others ratified the Constitution with the understanding that the amendments would be offered.

On September 25, 1789, the First Congress of the United States therefore proposed to the state legislatures 12 amendments to the Constitution that met arguments most frequently advanced against it. The first two proposed amendments, which concerned the number of constituents for each Representative and the compensation of Congressmen, were not ratified. Articles 3 to 12, however, ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures, constitute the first 10 amendments of the Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights.
