The resolution proposes an amendment to the West Virginia Constitution, specifically targeting section four of article VII, to clarify the eligibility and term limits for elected executive department officers. It stipulates that these officers cannot hold any other elected office during their terms and establishes that a person may not serve more than three consecutive terms in key positions such as Secretary of State, State Auditor, State Treasurer, Attorney General, or Commissioner of Agriculture. Additionally, it clarifies that individuals who have served two consecutive terms as Governor are ineligible for the office in the term immediately following their second term.

The proposed amendment, designated as "Amendment No. 1" and referred to as the "Constitutional Officer Term Limit Amendment," will be submitted to voters in the 2026 general election. The amendment aims to enhance the integrity of the executive branch by preventing conflicts of interest and ensuring a rotation of leadership in significant state offices. Terms served prior to January 1, 2027, will not count towards the new term limits, but any partial term served after that date will be considered a full term for the purposes of this limitation.
