It is time for congressional term limits

Because of 40 years of congressional history and recent events, it is time for a comprehensive and extensive reform of Congress.

Most senators and representatives have lost touch with the people who elected them. Their primary objective is to achieve their party's or their own agenda instead of the good of the voters and our nation.

I can't remember the last time Congress passed a balanced budget. It's time to pass term limits for senators and representatives. I suggest two six-year terms or 12 years for senators and four two-year terms or eight years for representatives. We need to demand term limits for senators and representatives; it's long overdue.
