To: The United States House of Representatives and The United States Senate

Term limits

Please join me in asking our representatives in Washington to place term limits on themselves. We need people who are not career politicians to represent us and do our bidding. I propose that we limit all of them to two consecutive terms and that once they are served they cannot run for those positions again.

Why is this important?

I believe it is time that we enacted term limits on Senators and Representatives. The culture in Washington has gotten so strong and so heavily influenced from outside sources that the ordinary citizen no longer has a say and the power structure in our elected offices simply causes our officials to be more concerned with maintaining power and doing the bidding of lobbyists and as such they no longer represent what the people want from their government. We do it to the President and most governors, why not to our Congresspeople.
