HB211 Summary

• Proposes a constitutional amendment to limit Alabama legislators to a maximum of three consecutive terms in either chamber of the Legislature.

• Service prior to November 3, 2010, does not count toward the term limit; a partial term lasting more than two years after the previous election constitutes a full term.

• The Legislature may enact general laws consistent with the amendment to implement this term limit provision.

• The amendment becomes valid upon approval by a majority of qualified electors voting in a referendum election held in accordance with constitutional procedures.

• Ballot language directs voters to choose "Yes" or "No" on whether to adopt the three consecutive term limit on legislative service.
