Tennessee Representative Introduces Resolution Proposing a Constitutional Amendment Allowing 3rd Term for Trump

Posted

Tennessee Representative and Congressman Andy Ogles introduced a resolution on Thursday, January 23 proposing a Constitutional Amendment that would allow Trump, and all future Presidents, to run for a third term in office.

The resolution reads,  “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than three times, nor be elected to any additional term after being elected to two consecutive terms, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.’’

"This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs," said Congressman Ogles in the press release.  

“It is imperative that we provide President Trump with every resource necessary to correct the disastrous course set by the Biden administration,” Ogles further stated.

"In just a few short days, President Trump has already taken action to undo the catastrophic policies of the Biden Administration and put the United States back on the path to strength and prosperity,” Ogles said.

“Compared to the prosperity and protection offered under President Trump, the Biden Administration has subjected Americans to relentless abuses that will take a decade to correct. Small towns and major cities alike have been overrun by millions of illegal immigrants trafficked across the border, fueling a surge in drug overdoses and violent crime. Soaring gas and groceries costs have crushed countless families' financial security. Radical LGBTQ+ agendas have infiltrated schools and workplaces, while DEI mandates have destroyed small businesses, wasted taxpayer dollars, and corrupted hiring practices. Social media platforms were coerced into censoring free speech and suppressing vital medical information. Meanwhile, servicemembers have been stripped of their pay and rank for refusing a hastily approved experimental vaccine. The list of this administration’s failures is as long as it is egregious,” Ogles further stated.

The two-term limit on the presidency was ratified February 27, 1951. Ogle’s resolution requires support from two-thirds of the House and Senate, along with three-fourths (38) of the states.

Ogles is a Tennessee native serving his second term in the House of Representatives.
