This petition requests a change to the United States Constitution, imposing strict term limits on the members of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives.
Members of the United States Senate should be limited to one (1) term in office and members of the United States House of Representatives should be limited to three (3) terms in office.
The current absence of term limits combined with the mounting costs of elections has created a system that is highly and dangerously oligarchic, rigid, easily corruptible, and stiffing of progressive legislative progress. To improve the system, term limits must be established.
There is overwhelming popular support for term limits. The United States Congress needs to operate in accordance with the wishes of the people
