This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to establish 20-year term limits for all federal judges, including Supreme Court justices and judges of inferior courts. Under the proposal, judges would serve fixed 20-year terms rather than lifetime appointments, and would be ineligible for reappointment to the same court after completing a term. The amendment would apply only to judicial appointments made after ratification.
