In 2017, Senator Don Huffines filed resolutions calling for term limits on Texas elected officials. Under Huffines' resolution, state legislators would have been limited to 12 years in office, judges would have been limited to 18 years in office and local elected officials would have been limited to 12 years in office. Would you have supported this resolution if it came before you for a vote? Why or why not?
Obviously, I have served for longer than 12 years. But, legislative seniority has historically been one of the ways that rural areas like ours, who are vastly under-represented in Austin, can hold their own. Still, I would be open to considering some form of term limits.
