Pass Term Limits For Congress that match the term limits set for the President of the United States

Created on March 15, 2016

Term Limits should be set for Congress Members. The limits should match those that have been set for The President of the United States.
The current Congress is a dismal failure and is desperate need of new ideas, procedures, and influence.
1.Political machine of incumbents make it very difficult to remove them from office.
2.Lobbyists and big-money campaign contributors usually direct their efforts at those in power, making it difficult for a new candidate to get off the ground.
3.Politicians are less likely to be focused on special interests and pork-barrel spending if they cannot stay in office indefinitely.
4.Lack of term limits leads to a system of seniority, meaning: most time = most power.
5.There is less chance for corruption of government officials.
