North Dakota Supreme Court weighs potential statewide vote on term limits change
The North Dakota Supreme Court heard arguments Thursday over whether proposed changes to voter-approved legislative term limits voters should go to voters in November.
Lawmakers in 2025 adopted the proposal, Senate Resolution 4008, to give lawmakers more freedom over how they spend their terms.
The resolution refers a constitutional amendment to the 2026 general election ballot. If voters approve it, the amendment would alter the legislative term limits created in 2022 that bar state lawmakers from serving more than eight years in the House and eight years in the Senate.
But two backers of the term limits amendment, Article XV, say Senate Resolution 4008 shouldn’t be put before voters.
