23 ene 1933 año - 20th Amendment Ratified
Descripción:
The 20th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1933, is known as the "Lame Duck Amendment" because it addresses the terms of office for Congress and the President, reducing the length of time outgoing officials serve after their successors are elected. Specifically, it moved the presidential inauguration from March 4 to January 20 and the start of the Congressional term from March 4 to January 3, thus minimizing the inefficient "lame duck" period of political transition.
