Proposing amendments to the Constitution of the State of Alaska relating to terms of legislators.
HJR 36 proposes a constitutional amendment to establish term limits for Alaska legislators: representatives would be limited to six full terms, and senators to three full terms. The amendment includes a transitional provision stating that service before the 2026 legislative session will not count toward these limits. If approved by voters, this would affect future election eligibility for state lawmakers. The bill requires voter approval at the next general election before taking effect.
