Bill > A05683

This bill proposes to amend the New York State Constitution to increase the terms of office for members of the state legislature from two years to four years, and to limit the total number of years a member can serve to twelve. Specifically, the bill would change the terms for state senators from three years to four years, and for state assembly members from two years to four years, while also capping the total number of years a legislator can serve at sixteen. This is intended to provide more stability and continuity in the state legislature.
