AR SJR15

Amends Arkansas Constitution Amendment 73 to reduce term limits for members of the General Assembly elected on or after January 1, 2021, from 16 years to 12 consecutive years.

Members first elected before January 1, 2021, retain the 16-year limit (consecutive or nonconsecutive); those elected on or after that date face a 12-year consecutive limit.

Members reaching their term limit must wait 4 years after their last term ends before becoming eligible for subsequent service in the General Assembly.

Service time calculations differ by election date: members elected before January 1, 2021, may combine Senate and House years nonconsecutively, while those elected after combine years consecutively.

Amendment requires voter approval at the next general election and becomes effective January 1, 2021, and shall be known as the "Arkansas Term Limits Amendment."
