SC 530 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Congress; urge to call convention to propose an amendment to U.S. Constitution to provide congressional term limits.

Mississippi's Senate Concurrent Resolution 530 is a state application to Congress requesting it call a constitutional convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution. The resolution specifically asks for an amendment to set term limits for U.S. House and Senate members - capping the number of terms a person may serve in each chamber. This application is part of a broader state effort to aggregate support from other states seeking the same constitutional change, aiming to reach the two-thirds threshold of states required to compel Congress to convene such a convention. The resolution does not create term limits itself but formally urges Congress to initiate the process.
