33. In 1866, There was an enforcement act that was later repealed.

Congress passed legislation granting the states the authority to implement section 3 of the 14th amendment, specifically against former members of the confederacy, and the legislation contained the guidelines for doing so.

At some point, I believe in the 1870’s that enforcement act was repealed, and since then only two people have been disqualified under the 14th- one last year for a county commissioner position, and one in the 1920’s for congress. The latter disqualification was reversed when the individual’s conviction was overturned, and he ran for and served in congress.
