Fulcher supports congressional term limits

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Adding to his ‘drain the swamp’ package, Congressman Fulcher has cosponsored H.J.Res.12. Introduced by Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC), H.J.Res.12 proposes a constitutional amendment limiting the number of terms that a Member of Congress may serve.

"H.J.Res.12 will ensure that elected officials live under the laws they pass,” commented Congressman Fulcher. “Supplementing the Constitution with term-limits makes it possible to introduce new leaders to the responsibilities of governing, and ensure accountability at our highest level of government.”

If applied, H.J.Res.12 would limit Members in the House of Representatives to serve three terms, and limit Senators to two terms. This proposed amendment would start the term limits after ratification, allowing prior elected terms to not count toward these limits.
