I heard on Fox that the 20 Republicans are demanding several new rules, including term limits.  The only way term limits can be applied to members of Congress under the federal Constitution is by an amendment. Why? First, the Supreme Court has already said so. Second, you cannot alter the Constitution by statute.  There are term limits on a president because the Constitution was amended after FDR was elected to 4 terms. So, this demand does nothing but deceive the public.  And they know it.
