HJ 21 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

RESOLUTION PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE STATE CONSTITUTION INCREASING THE LEGISLATIVE TERM OF OFFICE AND IMPOSING TERM LIMITS ON MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

HJ 21 proposes a constitutional amendment to change the term structure for state legislators. It would extend the term of office for all General Assembly members (senators and representatives) from two years to four years. The bill also imposes a two-term limit, preventing any member from serving more than two consecutive terms. This directly affects current and future legislators by altering election cycles and service duration. The amendment would require voter approval to take effect, as it modifies the state constitution.
