The bill, H. 3008, is a concurrent resolution from the South Carolina General Assembly that seeks to apply for a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution. The purpose of this convention is to propose an amendment that would establish term limits for members of the United States House of Representatives and Senate. The resolution outlines the process for transmitting this application to various federal and state officials, including the President, Secretary of the Senate, and members of Congress from South Carolina, in order to garner support for the initiative.

Additionally, the resolution states that this application will be considered in conjunction with similar applications from other states, aiming to achieve the two-thirds majority required to compel Congress to call a limited convention on this specific subject. It emphasizes that this application is a continuing one, remaining valid until at least two-thirds of the states have made similar applications regarding congressional term limits.
