my (unpopular) view is that legislators should serve for as long as voters want them there, and that the path to more turnover (if you want it) is more and better competition at the level of elections. https://t.co/cThHXJimUu — PolitiTweet.org

again, term limits are an awful idea. not only do they decrease legislative expertise and enhance the influence of lobbyists and other outside actors, but they further weaken legislatures vis a vis the executive. steyer should know this since it's what happened in california. — PolitiTweet.org

The American people are demanding term limits! Serving in Congress shouldn't be a lifetime appointment. Great crowd… https://t.co/xOMVqdrvhL

it's worth some facts here as well. the average years of service in the last Congress (the 115th) was was 9.4 years for the House and 10.1 years for the Senate. for the current Congress, it's 8.6 years for the House and 10.1 years for the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org
