In 1994 Republicans introduced a bill to limit members of the Senate to two six-year terms and members of the House to six two-year terms.After winning the majority, they brought a constitutional amendment to the House floor. Because the Republicans held 230 seats in the House, they were able to get a simple majority. However, constitutional amendments require a two-thirds majority, or 290 votes, and the votes to restrict term limits fell short of that number.
It is time that new Legislation be introduced to change the term limits on Legislators and Senators to two terms. This would put an end to lobbyists influence on Congress and end the hijacking of Bills that should be voted on.
