Courts Dictate Next Move on Term Limits

The Governor continues his push for term limits, choosing to stop at farms around the state to stump for the cause.

 

Rauner’s plan is for lawmakers to serve no more than 10 years and constitutional officer could serve for no more than 8 years. After calling on the Legislature to call his term limit bill for a vote he says that move is necessary because the courts suggest that amendments to change critical parts of government cannot start as a voter referendum.

 

 

Rauner says that he has the bill ready to go and could be called for a vote in the fall veto session.
