The resolution HCR2041 applies to the U.S. Congress to call for a convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution, aimed at proposing an amendment that would impose term limits on members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. This action is motivated by the desire of the Arizona Legislature, along with other states, to restore rotation in office for congressional members, especially after previous state-imposed term limits were overruled by the U.S. Supreme Court. The resolution emphasizes the authority of states to initiate such a convention when Congress is unresponsive to the public's demand for change.

The resolution outlines that Arizona's application will be considered alongside similar applications from other states, ensuring that it contributes to the necessary two-thirds majority required to compel Congress to convene. It also specifies that this application will remain active until at least two-thirds of the states have made similar requests. Furthermore, the Secretary of State is tasked with transmitting copies of the resolution to key congressional leaders and state legislative officers to seek their cooperation in this initiative. There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this resolution.
