Bill > SJRes48

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to limit the terms of service for members of Congress, specifically for Representatives and Senators. For Representatives, the amendment would restrict an individual to serving no more than six two-year terms, with any service of more than one year in a two-year term counting as a complete term. For Senators, the amendment would limit service to no more than two six-year terms, with any service of more than three years in a six-year term counting as a complete term. The proposed amendment includes a grandfather clause, meaning it would not apply to any Representatives or Senators who served during Congresses prior to the 118th Congress. To become part of the Constitution, the amendment would require ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures within seven years of its submission. This type of resolution, known as a term limits amendment, aims to promote legislative turnover and reduce the potential for career politicians by establishing maximum service periods for elected federal legislators.
