U.S. Term Limits Gains DeSantis, Trone to Push for Congressional Term Limits
U.S. Term Limits, a long-standing advocate for term limits, has gained two prominent figures, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Rep. David Trone, to champion its cause. The organization aims to build pressure on Congress to address term limits, with a goal of convening a national convention if 34 states pass supporting resolutions.
U.S. Term Limits has been advocating for term limits for decades and now encourages individuals to sign their petition online. While term limits enjoy bipartisan support among the public, they are less popular among members of Congress. To circumvent this, U.S. Term Limits is working through states to pass resolutions calling for term limits.
DeSantis and Trone will serve as national torchbearers for U.S. Term Limits' campaign, advocating with legislators in more states to pass matching resolutions. Several states, including Oklahoma, Missouri, Florida, and Arkansas, have already passed resolutions supporting congressional term limits and could back U.S. Term Limits' efforts. If 34 states pass such resolutions, a convention will be held to vote on a term limit amendment.
