Nice ideas, but Constitutional Amendments shouldn’t refer to statutes (Social Security).
Also, I’d prefer term limits to apply to the House only, or be more generous in the Senate: the Founders intended the Senate to be an “aristocratic” institution which would check the democratic whims of the House. Unfortunately, repealing the 17th Amendment seems to be a non-starter, but we ought to keep something of the idea.
How about:
“No person shall be a Representative who has previously served three terms as a Representative, whether complete two year terms or shorter terms owing to the filling of a vacancy by election or appointment under the laws of one of the several states.
No person shall be a Senator who has previously served four terms as a Senator, whether complete six year terms or shorter terms owing to the filling of a vacancy by election or appointment under the laws of one of the several states.
All laws generally applicable to citizens, nationals and residents of the United States shall be applicable to both Representatives and Senators during their term of office.
Congress shall pass no law creating special privileges, immunities, or rights applicable to Senators or Representatives, save as implementing those privileges, immunities and rights specifically granted in the Constitution of the United States or amendments thereto. Any law having created privileges, immunities or rights applicable to Senators or Representatives not provided by the Constitution of the United States or amendment thereto shall become null and void upon ratification of this amendment.”
One might even want to extend the generally applicable laws and no privileges, immunities and rights clauses to all officers of the Federal government.
Well, it sounds good to me. Anything to rein in the people that have decided to become our ruling class.
