From the transcript

And I'll just add briefly too, another piece of this that we didn't say out loud is this does propose term limits. So it proposes terms of 3 years, and then they would be staggered, and then there would be a limit of 3 consecutive full terms. So somebody could serve again, but they would have to wait. And the idea being, one, that there is some continuity, you know, that hopefully folks would want to stick around, but also that there's a built-in turnover mechanism. So that we don't have the same folks for 20 years, say.
