legislature; lifetime term limits; salary

HCR 2002 is a proposed constitutional amendment that would change Arizona's legislative term limits and salary structure. It would replace the current rule (allowing four consecutive terms) with a lifetime limit of four terms in each chamber (Senate or House), effective starting with the 2027 legislature. The amendment also sets a base legislative salary of $35,000 per year with automatic cost-of-living adjustments based on the consumer price index, and requires voter approval for any salary changes recommended by a state salary commission. This proposal must be approved by Arizona voters to take effect.
