List of amendments to the United States Constitution
Between 1789 and December 2014, about 11,623 amendments were proposed in Congress.   However, most of these suggested amendments "die" in the committees that suggest them.  In total, in the past 227 years, Congress has sent only 33 amendments to the states for ratification  just about one out of every 500 suggested amendments.  Of these 33, the states have set 27.
