Currently, no member of the General Assembly can serve more than eight years in any one house of the General Assembly nor more than 16 years total in both houses of the General Assembly.
Upon voter approval, this constitutional amendment would prohibit a member of the General Assembly from serving more than 12 years in any one house of the General Assembly and more than 20 years total in both houses of the General Assembly, beginning January 1, 2032.
Also beginning January 1, 2032, the amendment would prohibit any member of the House of Representatives from serving as Speaker of the House for more than four years and any member of the Senate from serving as President Pro Tem of the Senate for more than six years.
This amendment is similar to HJR 91 (2025).
