Bill > A04433

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to increase the terms of office for members of the New York State Legislature from two years to four years. It also limits the number of terms a legislator may serve. The bill specifies that senators elected in 2022 and subsequent years will serve four-year terms, and assembly members elected in 2022 and subsequent years will also serve four-year terms. The proposed amendment must be referred to the first regular legislative session convening after the next general election of assembly members and published for three months prior to that election.
