HRES 801 United States House · 119th Congress

Providing for the consideration of the joint resolution (H. J. Res. 12) proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to limit the number of terms that a Member of Congress may serve.

HRES 801 is a procedural resolution that enables the U.S. House of Representatives to immediately begin debating H.J.Res. 12, a proposed constitutional amendment limiting congressional terms. It sets specific rules: the House would consider H.J.Res. 12 as "read" with one hour of total debate equally split between the Judiciary Committee chair and ranking minority member. This resolution does not change any laws but streamlines the process for voting on the term limit proposal, which would affect all future members of Congress if adopted. The resolution itself only impacts the House's internal procedure for this specific bill.
