The resolution HCR2041 proposes that the Arizona Legislature formally applies to the U.S. Congress to call a convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution. The purpose of this convention would be to propose an amendment that sets limits on the number of terms a person may serve in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. This action is in response to previous attempts by Arizona and other states to impose term limits, which were overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. The resolution emphasizes the need for rotation in office and seeks to empower states to compel Congress to act on this issue.

Additionally, the resolution outlines that Arizona's application should be considered alongside similar applications from other states, aiming to achieve the necessary two-thirds majority to convene the convention. It specifies that this application will remain active until at least two-thirds of the states have made similar requests. The Secretary of State is tasked with transmitting copies of the resolution to key congressional leaders and state legislative officers to garner support for the initiative. There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this resolution.
