Idaho Legislature urges Congress to call a constitutional convention to propose term limits for U.S. Congress members.
The Idaho Legislature formally applies to Congress to convene a convention of states to propose an amendment limiting terms for U.S. Congress members. This follows previous state laws on term limits deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The resolution aims to leverage Article V of the U.S. Constitution, requiring two-thirds of states to apply for such a convention. Idaho joins other states in this effort, emphasizing the need for congressional action or state-led initiatives.
