THE PEOPLE’S
AMENDMENT PROCESS

A simple roadmap to passing Congressional Term Limits through Article V of the U.S. Constitution.

How We Win: The Article V Strategy

Step 1 — 34 States

“Once 34 state legislatures pass matching applications, the Term Limits Convention must be called.”

Step 2 — Convention Proposes Amendment

“Delegates from all 50 states meet to write the Congressional Term Limits Amendment.”

Step 3 — 38 States Ratify

“Just like every amendment in U.S. history, 38 states must approve it for it to become part of the solution

Where We Need Your Help Most

We’re currently organizing volunteers in seven key states where grassroots pressure can make the biggest impact on passing term limits.

If you live in or near one of these states — or know someone who does — your voice is especially powerful:

  • Arizona

  • Georgia

  • Arkansas

  • Kentucky

  • Mississippi

  • Nebraska

  • Utah

If you’re not — you can still join our national volunteer team and help with digital outreach, calling, texting, and mobilizing supporters where it matters most.

Why these states?

Each of them is positioned to advance term-limits legislation in the next session. Local supporters help us:

  • Build district-level pressure

  • Organize petition drives

  • Contact state legislators

  • Recruit additional volunteers

  • Share updates and voter education materials

Mobilize the movement

  • Spread the Word

    Share updates, infographics, and petitions online to grow our movement in every state.

  • Mobilize Your Community

    Help recruit supporters, engage neighbors, and connect with local organizations who care about reform.

  • Organize Promise Signers

    Volunteers help bring Americans into the “Promise List” — the group of supporters who pledge to fight for term limits and provide the zip-code data we need to target state-level advocacy.
