congressional term limits; convention
Arizona's HCR 2041 is a state resolution requesting Congress to call a constitutional convention under Article V to propose term limits for U.S. House and Senate members. It asks other states with similar applications to combine their efforts to meet the two-thirds state requirement for such a convention. If Congress fails to act, Arizona and other participating states would proceed with their own convention to draft term limits. This resolution does not create new law but seeks to restart a state-led process for constitutional change, targeting federal congressional representation.
