Resumen con IA Iowa could limit how many years certain elected officials can serve in office. Under this plan, state representatives, senators, and several statewide leaders would have limits on how many consecutive terms they can hold. These rules would not apply to time served before 2029 and would not affect officials who stay in their current roles without a break. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)1

12 state, treasurer of state, or attorney general. The resolution provides that a person shall not be elected for a term as a representative if the term would result in the person serving more than six consecutive terms in the house of representatives, elected for a term as a senator if the term would result in the person serving more than three consecutive terms in the senate, or elected for a term as a specified statewide elected official if the term would result in the person serving more than three consecutive terms in that office. Additionally, a representative shall not be elected for a term as a representative for two years following a sixth consecutive term, a senator shall not be elected for a term as a senator for four years following a third consecutive term, and a specified statewide elected official shall not be elected for a term for four years following a third consecutive term in that office. For purposes of this limitation, a person shall not be considered to have served a term if that person was elected to serve a portion of a term to which another person was originally elected. The resolution provides that a person shall not be elected to a term as governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, attorney general, representative in the general assembly, or senator in the general assembly if the term would result in the person serving more than 24 years in any of those offices or any combination of those offices. The resolution does not apply to service occurring prior to January 1, 2029. The lifetime term limitation allows a person serving in an elected office at the time of adoption of the amendment to continue to serve unlimited terms so long as that person continuously remains in that office, subject to the other provisions of the resolution. The resolution, if adopted, would be referred to the next general assembly (92nd) for adoption before being submitted to the electorate for ratification.
