What Kind of Term Limits Reform Does Prop. 93 Promise?

Prop 93 on next month’s ballot is entitled, “Limits on Legislative Terms in Office”—and that’s technically accurate. Current law allows a total of 14 years in the Assembly and Senate and Prop 93 would cut that to 12. Nevertheless, some 42 incumbents could end up serving more than the current limit of 14 if the measure were passed.
