Daily News | Term limits for City Council will bring new voices to local politics | Editorial
While Philadelphia has been slow to adopt term limits for municipal legislators, many large cities — including New York, Los Angeles, and San Diego — already have such measures in place. Opponents of term limits tend to emphasize the contributions of veteran legislators and the value of experience in office.
Without question, veteran lawmakers can certainly make valuable contributions, but new members inherently bring with them new perspectives. In addition, while at-large members like Reynolds Brown typically face stiff competition when running for reelection, their colleagues who represent districts often do not. It is difficult for voters to call time on anyone’s tenure in office if there’s no alternative option.
