Congress has become one of the most corrupt organizations in this country. They have been elected to represent the people. They no longer do that. They only represent their party, donors and themselves. It is time we remove all of these people from office. These are not just Democrat or Republican issues, they must all be removed. The Constitution gives us a means by which we can do that. 85% of the American people believe we should have term limits. Why do we continue to send the same people to congress when so many people what a change. There has never been a campaign to have a term limit candidate running for election in each congressional race. This will give the voter a choice between a term limit candidate and a candidate that does not support term limits. To get a term limit bill through congress you must get 291 members of the house and 67 member of the Senate to vote for the bill. Currently there are 120 members of the House and 20 members of the Senate that support a bill for term limits. Please click on the amendment here on our website and read it.
