  1. Because, once again, Republican state legislators need to prove they know better than local leaders what is best for every community in the state. The governor should veto it and make a strong statement that (what used to be a standard Republican core belief) “the government that is closest to the people is the government that is most responsive to the people.”

    1. If voters want to impose term limits through a referendum, OK.

      But a legislative body just doing it on their own? Lands wrong to me.

    2. Yes Brent, lack of term limits is because of the evil republicans LOL. Now do the Indy CC voting themselves massive raises.

  2. Ah so it’s ok that the house and senate make rules for the state, sometimes against Federal laws, but wait a local municipality tries to ensure we have fresh thinking and the house and senate over turn? Where is the logic? Term limits for everyone!

  3. This makes no sense to me. Every single state legislator in Indiana thinks local municipalities should not be able to make rules about term limits? There must be some context missing here.

    1. They think they alone should set election laws in the state.

      The reality is, most people hate all incumbent legislators except their own.

  4. Even deeper evidence that NONE of these people do not care about quality governance. They care about lining their own pockets.
    Only way to impose term limits is vote them out. Government at ALL levels and both parties in this country suck.
