That's right. Some Republicans in Congress are proposing an amendment to limit the terms of Senators and Congressmen. Under this amendment, Senators would be able to serve 12 years while Congressmen would be able to serve only 6 years. I believe that this is an important step that will lead to change in Washington because new ideas must be rotated through Congress in order for change to take place. With our current system, permanent politicians are "ruling" and individualism is not thriving like the Founding Fathers envisioned.
Republican Senator DeMint (pictured above) is the main proponent of this amendment.
