Which amendment addresses presidential succession?

The 25th amendment is the constitutional provision that addresses presidential succession as well as procedures for filling a vacancy in the office of the vice president and dealing with presidential disability. Ratified in 1967, this amendment clarifies the process if a president is unable to fulfill their duties due to illness, incapacitation, or political reasons.

The first section states that if the president is removed from office, dies, or resigns, the vice president becomes president. Subsequent sections provide guidance on how to appoint a new vice president and outline the procedure for the president to declare their inability to perform their duties, as well as the process by which the vice president and a majority of the cabinet can determine the president's inability to serve. This amendment was established to ensure a clear and orderly transition of power, preserving the continuity of government.

The other amendments listed do not pertain to presidential succession or the mechanics of filling presidential or vice presidential vacancies. Each of those amendments covers different issues, such as voting rights and congressional pay.
