Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
This resolution is a statement by the House of Representatives reaffirming that the constitutional two-term limit applies in the aggregate and that it bars President Trump from seeking another term. It only expresses the House's view and does not change the Constitution or create new law. It does not bind courts, the Senate, or the President and is not itself enforceable as law.
As a House simple resolution, it would be adopted only by the House, would not be sent to the President, and is non-binding; it does not by itself alter legal rights or stop anyone from taking legal action.
This House resolution restates that the Twenty-second Amendment limits a President to two aggregate terms and affirms that limitation applies to President Trump.
The text recounts public statements by President Trump about serving more than two terms and concludes by reaffirming the Amendment’s applicability and that it prohibits him from running again.
As a House simple resolution restating constitutional interpretation, it is nonbinding and cannot itself change law; passage into binding law is effectively impossible.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill functions as a straightforward symbolic House resolution that clearly states and emphasizes the House's view of the Twenty‑second Amendment's application to two aggregate terms and the named individual's ineligibility to run again. Its operative language is concise and appropriate for an expression of opinion.
