Describe term limitations (or "term limits") for California legislators.
What will be an ideal response?
A legislator may serve up to 12 years in the Assembly alone, in the Senate alone, or the Assembly and Senate combined; this is a lifetime ban, meaning that once a person has hit the maximum of 12 years, she/he may not serve in that office again. These limits apply to legislators who were elected to their first term in 2012. (For those who were elected prior to 2012, they may serve a total of 14 years with two 4-year terms in the Senate, and three 2-year terms in the Assembly, lifetime ban.)
