Summary
The resolution requests that Congress call a limited constitutional convention to propose an amendment setting term limits for members of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate. It limits the application to that subject and would be aggregated with similar applications from other states. If two‑thirds of state legislatures submit matching applications, Congress must convene the convention.
