Implement Term Limits for Members of the U.S. Congress
The Issue
As citizens of the United States, the continued power consolidation and stagnation of our Congress deeply concerns us. We've waited too long, expecting Congress to self-govern their tenure in office.
Almost every American we converse with agrees - we need term limits. Yet, the bureaucratic "machine" continuously obstructs this essential change.
Therefore, we propose a national election ballot topic to address this issue, seeking to set congressional term limits to a maximum of 6 years for Senators and 12 years for Representatives. It's apparent that Congress might not self-limit, and hence, we turn to the power of the masses. This petition aims to garner the necessary 100,000+ signatures to formally solicit a response from the White House.
A Pew Research survey done in 2018 shows that 77% of Americans favoring term limits in Congress, which reiterates the pressing need to raise this issue to a ballot vote (source: Pew Research Center).
Your signature can catalyze this change, amplifying the voice of ordinary citizens like us. We need to be heard, and your support is instrumental in making that happen. Please sign this petition and help transform our Congress for the better. Thank you!
