SRES 154 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that Donald Trump is ineligible in any future elections to be elected Vice-President or President, or to serve as President beyond the conclusion of his current term.

This non-binding Senate resolution (SRES 154) expresses the Senate's opinion that Donald Trump is constitutionally ineligible for future presidential or vice-presidential elections, or to serve beyond his current term. It cites the Twelfth Amendment (which links VP eligibility to presidential eligibility) and the Twenty-Second Amendment (limiting presidential terms) as the basis for this view. The resolution does not change any law or legal status - it is solely a symbolic statement of the Senate's position. It directly affects no one legally, as such resolutions carry no enforceable effect. The Senate’s "sense" here is a formal expression of opinion, not a policy change.
