Bill Summary
A resolution to reaffirm our support for the Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, establishing a two-term limit for the office of President of the United States.
AI Summary
This resolution reaffirms support for the Twenty-Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which limits presidents to two terms in office. The resolution provides historical context, noting that prior to this amendment, only Franklin Delano Roosevelt had served more than two terms, which ultimately prompted the constitutional change. The resolution emphasizes the importance of term limits as a critical safeguard against democratic backsliding and the potential consolidation of power by executive leaders. It highlights that as of 2023, 108 countries have constitutional provisions limiting presidential terms, and underscores that all U.S. presidents since the amendment's ratification have respected the two-term limit. Specifically, the resolution not only supports the amendment but also explicitly rejects any attempts to undermine, delegitimize, weaken, amend, ignore, or subvert the two-term restriction, thereby reinforcing the constitutional principle that no person can be elected president more than twice.
