A joint resolution proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States relative to the line item veto, a limitation on the number of terms that a Member of Congress may serve, and requiring a vote of two-thirds of the membership of both Houses of Congress on any legislation raising or imposing new taxes or fees.
This joint resolution proposes three constitutional amendments. It would grant the President the power to disapprove specific spending items in bills (line item veto), limit House members to six terms and Senators to two terms, and require a two-thirds vote in both congressional chambers to pass any new taxes or tax increases. The bill directly affects the President's executive authority, congressional term limits for members, and the legislative process for tax legislation. If ratified, these changes would alter how spending bills are handled, set term limits for Congress, and raise the threshold for tax-related legislation.
