HJR 44 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Proposes a Constitutional amendment that modifies term limits for members of the general assembly

HJR 44 proposes a constitutional amendment modifying term limits for Missouri General Assembly members. It would allow legislators to serve up to 12 years in one house (House or Senate) and a maximum of 16 years total across both houses. Service before December 3, 1992, or less than one year in the House (or two years in the Senate) to complete another member's term would not count toward these limits. The bill also restricts the House Speaker to two terms and the Senate President Pro Tempore to one term.
