WASHINGTON, DC – PA U.S. Sen. David McCormick introduced a joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution to implement term limits in Congress. The resolution would limit Senators to two six-year terms and House members to six two-year terms, limiting either chamber to service of twelve years. McCormick said our Founding Fathers never imagined that Congress would become an institution filled with career politicians. While grateful for those who have served, we need constant change and new blood for our democracy to work. McCormick’s resolution would not apply to any person who was in office prior to the 118th Congress. McCormick’s resolution mirrors one introduced in the U.S. House by PA Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick.
