Yes to term limits. Two (12 years) for the Senate, 5 (10 years) for the House. That's not to say one cannot move up to the Senate after 10 years in the House. This allows the people the ability to reelect someone if they are doing a good job and for the member to gain experience and attain leadership positions, but at some point it is time to let someone else who wants to serve have an opportunity to do so. SO MANY people who want to enter public service don't do so because the financial and political advantages that come with incumbency (after a certain number of years) become too great to overcome.
