Limit terms in the United States Congress

Created by M.A. on December 17, 2012

The president is limited in the number of terms that can be served. It's about time congress was limited to the number of terms. Congress approval rating is at an all time low. The U.S. Congress is made up of two parts, the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Congressional term limits are legal restrictions on the amount of time that a person may serve as a representative or senator. In theory, term limits could be consecutive, limiting the number of back-to-back terms that a person can hold, or restrict an individual to an absolute number of years in office during his or her lifetime. As of 2012, there are no term limits in Congress.
