Woah, this bill is huge. If it passes, a person can only serve maximum of 3 terms in the House of Representatives and 2 in Congress. At the moment there are no limits at all, which of course means those who have been in there for decades are corrupt to the bone. No more Chuck Schumers or Nancy Pelosis after this!
Mr. Cruz (for himself, Mr. Rubio, and Mr. Lee) introduced the following joint resolution; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
