Why are term limits bad?

[Caveira]

1996 — Susan Collins: “I have pledged that if I’m elected, I will only serve two terms.”

Fast forward.

Susan Collins, 2026:

“I’m running for re-election.”

That’s 30 years in Washington.

This is exactly why so many Americans are calling for term limits.

Too many politicians promise voters they won’t stay in Washington forever. They campaign as public servants, not career politicians.

But once they get power, the promises disappear.

The job becomes a lifelong career.

The promises always sound good during the campaign, but the reality is very different.

It’s time for term limits.
