Proposes Constitutional Amendment to limit to 12 number of successive years members of General Assembly can serve.
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to limit New Jersey General Assembly members to 12 consecutive years of service. It would apply only to service after the amendment is adopted, meaning current members' prior service would not count toward the cap. Members serving a term at the end of their 12th consecutive year could complete that term, and service filling unexpired terms (one year or more) would count toward the limit. The amendment would reset the 12-year count if a member leaves office for at least one full term before returning.
