The Founders never intended this. It should be 2 Senate Terms and then out.
Even more importantly, the 17th Amendment is the first abortion the Constitution underwent...
“It should be 2 Senate Terms and then out.”
Agree. Term limits AND age limits. Mandatory retirement at 74, so you must be 68 or less when elected to Senate. I personally think Congress should be increased to a 4 year term (2yrs is too short - they’re constantly running for re-election) and then they could be re-elected 3 times (serve 12 years) and then out, same age limit as Senators.
Presidents also should have age limits - I think maybe 68 or 69 the year they’re elected with mandatory retirement at 72 or 73. (I lean toward the lower age)
Founders never intended senators to be publicly elected…
The states now have zero representation in Washington
