To those who skipped history and government classes; The 14th Amendment extends citizenship to all natural born or naturalized Americans regardless of race and guaranteed that rights of citizenship, like voting, cannot be restricted by the states. The 15th Amendment prohibits restricting the right to vote due to race. The 17th Amendment requires states to elect senators by popular vote. The 19th Amendment extends voting rights to all women. The 26th Amendment extends the right to vote to everyone 18 years of age and older. Additionally, the 24th Amendment explicitly bans poll taxes, which often prevented low-income citizens of all races from voting.
