President-elect Donald Trump, who will return to office for a second term on Jan. 20, 2025, recently reignited a constitutional debate about whether a twice-elected president can serve a third term.

The 22nd Amendment says, "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice," and it also says vice presidents who eventually become president can be elected to two terms if they have served less than two years of their predecessors' terms, according to the Congressional Research Service.

Dan Goldman’s initiative will reiterate two-term clause from amendment approved by US Congress in 1947

The 22nd Amendment already states that presidents can only be elected twice, but that’s not enough for Rep. Dan Goldman, New York Democrat, who plans to file the resolution Thursday.
