This proposed constitutional amendment would prevent members of Congress from serving more than a set number of consecutive terms in the House of Representatives and Senate, effectively creating term limits for lawmakers. Currently, there are no limits on how many times a representative or senator can be reelected, so this change would force experienced legislators to eventually leave office. The amendment would need approval from two-thirds of both the House and Senate, plus ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures to become part of the Constitution.
