Bill Summary

RESOLUTION PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE STATE CONSTITUTION TO ESTABLISH TERM LIMITS FOR LEGISLATORS.

AI Summary

This resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to establish term limits for state legislators in the General Assembly. Specifically, the amendment would restrict individuals to serving no more than six terms as a state senator and no more than six terms as a state representative. The purpose of this proposed change is to limit the length of time legislators can serve in each chamber of the legislative body, potentially introducing more opportunities for new leadership and preventing long-term entrenchment of individual politicians. By setting a maximum of six terms in each chamber, the resolution aims to promote turnover and potentially bring fresh perspectives to the state's legislative process.
