Dear Conservatives, The supporters of Americans for Constitutional Liberty have spoken! In an overwhelming response to our survey, ACL supporters stated their preference for term limits in Congress. More than 97% of respondents said that members of Congress should be term-limited . . . AND that ACL should launch a targeted campaign to make term limits a reality. So we've decided to do just that! We're currently formatting our campaign to pressure Congress to approve a constitutional amendment that implements term limits. We also plan to advocate for a three-term limit for House members. A three-term cap was supported by over 55% of survey respondents, while 33% supported a cap of four terms or more. For Senators, we're going with a two-term limit, which was the preference of over 70% of those surveyed. Finally, we will stipulate that Congressional terms served before the amendment goes into effect will not be counted. The clock will start running after the amendment is ratified. At ACL, we've flat out had it with corrupt politicians who seem concerned only with pleasing lobbyists and getting re-elected. We believe that term limits would be a very strong check on these unscrupulous political opportunists. Upon receiving the results of our ACL Term Limits Survey, we are highly encouraged. Not only do 97.6% of survey respondents support term limits, but 94.6% of responders were either significantly bothered or outraged that Congress does not already have term limits in place! Clearly, there is ample public support for term limits in Congress. It's a commonsense solution that Americans strongly favor . . . so let's make it happen. I urge you to contact your Representative and Senators, asking them to support a term limits amendment. Thank you for your valuable feedback, and for supporting ACL and our push to hold politicians accountable by implementing term limits! Sincerely, Peter Thomas Chairman, Americans for Constitutional Liberty P.S. The more support we can amass, the harder we can pressure Congress to finally make term limits a reality. Please make your most generous contribution of $20, or whatever you can afford, TODAY, to help ACL fight for term limits in Congress! |
