First Congressional District candidate Kevin Hern has signed the Term Limits Amendment pledge. The pledge supports term limits for all members of Congress. Hern is trying to win the Republican nomination in the race to replace Congressman Jim Bridenstine.
“Washington is ineffective and broken. The big part of the problem in D.C. as Dr. Tom Coburn often says, ‘When we send someone to Washington and they get the best job they have ever had with the most money they’ve ever made and a pension they would not get in any other field – we are setting ourselves up for failure.’ We keep doing that all across the country and then wonder why things don’t ever change,” Hern said. “More than ever, the American people understand that we need proven problem solvers, who understand how to create jobs, representing the people’s interest in Washington, D.C. I believe the dysfunction and incompetence in Washington must end, and I will use my experience to change the way business is done.”
The U.S. Term Limits Constitutional Amendment has been introduced by U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and Congressman Ron DeSantis. It would limit House terms to three and Senate terms to two.
Oklahoma has term limits – look at the hole we’re in.
Instead, maybe we should get some real leadership skills, instead of petty agendas.
