Bill > HC51

This concurrent resolution, passed by the Mississippi Legislature, formally requests that the United States Congress call a convention to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, this convention would be limited to discussing and proposing amendments that establish term limits for members of both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, meaning there would be a maximum number of terms a person could serve in each chamber. This application is intended to be combined with similar applications from other states to reach the threshold of two-thirds of the states required by Article V of the Constitution to trigger Congress's obligation to call such a convention, but it is strictly for the purpose of congressional term limits and will not be grouped with applications for other issues. The resolution also states that this application remains in effect until enough states have made similar requests.
