Maine Term Limits

Maine Term Limits Maine Term Limits seeks to pass an Article V application through the state legislature for the sole purpose of imposing term limits on the US Congress.

Get involved now! We have launched a new grassroots campaign to bring term limits to Congress and we need your help! Congress will never propose an amendment to limit its own terms. That’s why we need to use an amendment-proposing convention of the states to get it done! Across America, 87% of Republicans, 83% of Democrats and 75% of Independents support term limits on Congress. This is a fundamen

tal American issue that has the support of the people. The Founders included the Article V convention in the Constitution specifically to empower states to seek amendments. Maine can be part of the solution by passing a bill to call for the convention in the upcoming session. We are working to get the Maine Legislature to pass our bill so that we can be one of the required 34 state legislatures to call for this Term Limits Convention. If you support term limits on Congress, contact your member of the Maine Legislature today to tell them to support the Term Limits Convention. We hope we can count on your support!

The U.S. just hit a record $40 trillion in debt. Meanwhile, Congress keeps waiting until the last minute to pass spending bills, relying on short-term fixes instead of doing the job on time. It's time for term limits.

Leadership in Congress runs on seniority, not merit. New members often need over a decade in office just to gain real influence, and by then, many have lost touch with why they ran in the first place. Plenty of skilled people see that math and decide not to run at all. Term limits take the focus off tenure and put it back on merit.

Does Congress need that change?

Harvard Law Professor Lawrence Lessig explains exactly how major constitutional change has actually happened in American history, and why the same strategy can work for term limits.

"If you look at the most important amendments in American history, three of them were proposed because we had a civil war. Nobody wants a civil war today. But every one of the other important amendments, including the Bill of Rights as well as the amendments that made senators elected by the people, all of those amendments came because there was an Article V convention movement that got states around the country to say, 'We want a convention.' And when Congress saw the number of states calling for a convention was getting close to the number necessary to convene one, Congress was terrified. So Congress proposed the amendments the convention calls were demanding. That's the strategy we need today, and the convention movements have been central to that transformation."
—Prof. Larry Lessig, Harvard University
