Who has the power to propose new amendments to the United States Constitution?

  1. President.

  2. Supreme Court.

  3. Congress.

  4. State governors.

The correct answer is: Congress.

The United States Constitution explicitly states that the power to propose new amendments belongs to Congress, specifically the Senate and the House of Representatives. While the President, Supreme Court, and state governors all play important roles in the government, they do not have the authority to propose amendments to the Constitution. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect.
