Constitutional Amendments - Proposes that a member of the house of representatives or the senate shall not serve more than 12 consecutive years in office; provides that the limitation on the term of office for a current member of the general assembly begins upon the expiration of the member's current term. -

HJR 133 is a proposed constitutional amendment that would limit Tennessee House and Senate members to 12 consecutive years in office. It applies to all current and future legislators, with the term limit beginning after a member's current term expires. If passed, this amendment would require a constitutional change to enforce the 12-year consecutive service cap. (Note: This is a proposed resolution, not yet enacted.)
