Robert Thomas - Kansas House 61 - Term Limits and Article V Convention


Listen Later

Robert Thomas is running for Kansas House District 61, representing parts of Jackson, Pottawatomie, and Riley counties, including Holton, Delia, Westmoreland, St. Marys, Onaga, and parts of Manhattan.

In this portion of the conversation, Thomas discusses term limits and the concept of an Article V Convention, which would allow states to propose constitutional amendments. He explains that efforts at the national level have focused on issues like a balanced budget amendment and term limits, while also noting that states would ultimately need to approve any changes.

The discussion also returns to the idea of term limits at the state level, with Thomas expressing support for limiting time in office to prevent long-term consolidation of power. Both emphasize the importance of maintaining accountability and ensuring that elected officials remain focused on serving their districts rather than holding positions indefinitely.
