Term limits is on the move this week. In Oklahoma, the House of Representatives passed our bipartisan House Joint Resolution 1032 by a margin of 59 to 34. Now we head over to the State Senate for a vote. Make sure to call your Oklahoma state senators and ask them to support our resolution. In Tennessee, weve had some great success. House Joint Resolution 5 passed 66 to 26. Now, this one also heads to the state senate, so make sure to call your state senators in Tennessee.

Term limits were on the move. This is Holly Robichaud with Breaking News on Term Limits.

As you know, were working hard in the states to bypass Congress in order to get congressional term limits. As I mentioned in the opening, Oklahoma has passed the resolution in the House of Representatives. Now, the resolution sponsored by Jon Echols is headed to the state Senate. Make sure to call your state senators and urge them to vote for it.

In the volunteer State of Tennessee, the House of Representatives also passed House Resolution 5 sponsored by Chris Todd by a margin of 66 to 26. Now, that resolution is also headed to the state senate. Once again, call your state senators. In Tennessee, our state chair, who is the Knoxville county mayor, Glenn Jacobs, also known to millions as WWEs Kane will be joining us on this program to talk about term limits. So youll make sure you wanna listen next week.

Did you hear the news coming out of Washington DC this week? As Ive mentioned before, we have house joint resolution 11 filed by representative Ralph Norman. Well, were now up to 88 co-sponsors. This week, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Chuck Edwards of North Carolina, Claudia Tenney of New York, and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington have joined on as co-sponsors of the legislation. Were excited to have them on board.

Now, house speaker Kevin McCarthy has promised us a vote, so we need you to take action and go to termlimits.com/McCarthy and urge Kevin McCarthy to have our vote on term limits for Congress. In DC, were not only making progress on the House side, but were also making progress on the Senate side. Were proud to announce this week that Senator Rand Paul has co-sponsored Senator Ted Cruzs Senate joint resolution 2 calling for congressional term limits. Thank you, senator Rand Paul for having the courage.

Do you know what you get when you dont have term limits? You get corrupt politicians, thats why every week we have a corrupt politician of the week. This week, former Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder makes our list. Householder was found guilty on Thursday by a federal jury for participating in a racketeering conspiracy that involved nearly $61 million in bribes and $1.3 billion bailout for two struggling nuclear power plants. Householder received a $500,000 bribe through his tax-exempt social welfare organization, which he used to pay down credit card debt and repair a Florida property. Enough is enough. Its time for term limits.

Now, I wanna update you on one of the corrupt politicians of the week we previously mentioned, former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan. Madigan was the longest and has the record for being the longest serving leader of any state in the entire country. Talk about needing term limits. Well, Madigan has unlimited amounts of money in his campaign account, and as of last week, he spent $8 million defending himself against corruption charges. In Illinois, he crafted the law that he can spend unlimited amounts of campaign contributions on his legal defense fund. See why we need term limits?

We elect people to Congress and state legislatures to be our voice. Well, that doesnt seem to be happening in North Dakota. The State House this week passed a resolution that would eliminate term limits for the legislature and the governor, which was just passed by a wide margin by the people of North Dakota, in last November. In that election, over 150,000 voters supported the resolution calling for term limits on the legislature and the governor. It passed by a margin of 63% to 36. Now, the legislature is trying to overturn the will of the people. Thats not what we want. People want term limits. And its unfortunate that the North Dakotas legislature is not listening to the people.

Have enough of politicians not listening to you? We need you to get involved so we can make congressional term limits a reality. We have a lot going on, whether its down in Congress or whether its across the states, we need you to help out.
