The resolution proposes a new article to the Constitution of North Dakota that establishes term limits for various state officials, including the governor, lieutenant governor, and members of the legislative assembly. Specifically, it limits individuals to two terms for the governor and lieutenant governor, three terms for statewide elected officials such as the attorney general and secretary of state, and four complete four-year terms for members of the legislative assembly. Importantly, any prior service before the 2022 general election will not count towards these new term limits. The resolution also seeks to repeal existing provisions in Article XV of the Constitution that relate to cumulative term limits and legislative authority regarding term limits.

If approved by voters in the 2026 general election, the changes outlined in the resolution will take effect on January 1, 2027. The measure aims to enhance accountability and limit the duration of service for elected officials in North Dakota, while also clarifying that any conflicting provisions in the Constitution will be overridden by this new article.
