Agree

No, officials gain valuable experience and become more effective representatives over time

Many Democrats believe that experience is valuable and that term limits could hinder effective representation. For example, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has argued against term limits, stating that they would undermine the power of seniority and experience in Congress. However, not all Democrats share this view, so the score is not strongly positive.

Slightly agree

No, we already have term limits that are called “elections”

Some Democrats argue that elections serve as a form of term limits, allowing voters to decide whether to re-elect their representatives. However, this is not a universally held view within the party, and some Democrats do support term limits for members of Congress.

Slightly disagree

Yes, term limits for the House but not the Senate

Disagree

Yes, and decrease their salary and retirement benefits

While some Democrats may support term limits, the idea of decreasing salary and retirement benefits for members of Congress is not a widely supported position within the party. Democrats generally advocate for fair wages and benefits for workers, and this would likely extend to members of Congress as well.
