Some of these people have been in Congress for 40+ years. They're completely out of touch and more focused on staying in power than actually helping anyone.

Over 90% of Congress gets reelected despite everyone hating Congress. If elections won't create turnover, term limits are the only way.

We already have term limits - they're called elections. If voters want to keep someone, that's democracy working. Why tell people they can't choose who they want?

Term limits just transfer power from elected officials to unelected lobbyists and staffers who stick around forever. You're not reducing insider influence, you're making it less accountable.

Some of the most important legislation in history was crafted by experienced members who knew how to make things happen. You can't replace that with enthusiasm.

The problem isn't how long people serve, it's money in politics. Term limits don't fix that at all.
