A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa limiting years of service for members of the general assembly and certain statewide elected officials.
Introduced, referred to State Government.
Summary
The resolution would add a new constitutional article that prevents anyone from being elected or appointed to the governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, secretary of agriculture, auditor, treasurer, attorney general, or a member of the Iowa House or Senate if they have already served a total of 24 years in any of those positions. The limit applies to combined service across offices, not just a single post. If passed, the amendment would go to voters after being approved by the next elected General Assembly.
