SF2143 (Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026))

Term limits provision for governor and lieutenant governor

Related bill: HF1849

AI Generated Summary

This bill proposes an amendment to the Minnesota Constitution to establish term limits for the offices of governor and lieutenant governor. Under the proposed change, no person may be elected more than twice to either office. If adopted, the term limits would take effect beginning with elections in 2030, meaning elections prior to that date would not count toward the limit. The amendment will be presented to Minnesota voters during the 2026 general election, with the ballot question explicitly asking whether they approve of limiting the governor and lieutenant governor to two terms.
