Returning the power of government to the people
“We believe this is the best way to return the power of government back to the people where it belongs and to start to change the culture in Harrisburg so that the government once again works for the people that we serve,” said Lewis.
On the other hand, Jones noted that Pennsylvania voters “overwhelmingly support term limits…I believe we have an obligation to allow the citizens of our state to express their will.”
In addition, Jones emphasized, “We are not trying to limit voter options but rather trying to level the playing field and offset some of the ever increasing advantages that go along with ever increasing tenure.”
“In short, if our nation can survive limiting the President to eight years, I’m quite confident our Commonwealth will survive limiting our terms to 12. Let’s put it on the ballot and let voters decide,” he said.
