The Sixteenth Amendment in the National Archives. The Sixteenth Amendment (Amendment XVI) to the United States Constitution allows the Congress to levy an income tax without apportioning it among the states or basing it on the United States Census.n July 12, 1909, the resolution proposing the Sixteenth Amendment was passed by the Congress and was submitted to the state legislatures. Support for the income tax was strongest in the western and southern states and opposition was strongest in the northeastern states.
16th Amendment Forward: In 1913, with World War I looming, ratification of the 16th Amendment permanently established the income tax. The amendment gave Congress the authority to impose a tax on the income earned by both individuals and corporations. By 1918, government revenue generated from the income tax exceeded $1 billion for the first time, and topped $5 billion by 1920. The introduction of the mandatory withholding tax on employee wages in 1943 increased tax revenue to almost $45 billion by 1945.
