- The legislation would limit senators to two six-year terms and House members to three two-year terms.
- “Term limits are critical to fixing what’s wrong with Washington, D.C.,” Cruz said. “The Founding Fathers envisioned a government of citizen legislators who would serve for a few years and return home, not a government run by a small group of special interests and lifelong, permanently entrenched politicians who prey upon the brokenness of Washington to govern in a manner that is totally unaccountable to the American people.”
-
The legislation has at least GOP cosponsors including Sens. J.D. Vance, of Ohio; Bill Hagerty, of Tennessee; Cynthia Lummis, of Wyoming; Roger Marshall, of Kansas; Mike Lee, of Utah; Steve Daines, of Montana; Todd Young and Mike Braun, both of Indiana; and Rick Scott, of Florida.
