Former Virginia Delegate Dr. Ibraheem Samirah Named State Chair for U.S. Term Limits Advocacy

U.S. Term Limits announced that Dr. Ibraheem Samirah has agreed to serve as the Virginia State Chair for the organization. Dr. Samirah, who previously served in the Virginia House of Delegates, will lead efforts to advance a state resolution calling for a constitutional amendment to establish congressional term limits. The appointment signals a strategic push to add Virginia to the growing number of states advocating for this change.

Dr. Samirah emphasized the widespread public backing for term limits, citing polls that indicate over 80% of Americans support enacting congressional term limits. He described this issue as one that unites citizens across political affiliations. ‘Now more than ever before, the need for term limits is crystal clear,’ Dr. Samirah stated. He argued that term limits would help break the dysfunction seen in Washington, D.C., and improve government accountability and diversity.

Philip Blumel, President of U.S. Term Limits, expressed confidence in Dr. Samirah’s leadership, noting that his experience in public service and understanding of Virginia politics would be instrumental in passing a term limits resolution in the state legislature. U.S. Term Limits is recognized as the largest grassroots term limits advocacy group in the country, focusing on connecting supporters with legislators to promote term limits at various government levels, with a particular emphasis on the U.S. Congress.

The effort in Virginia is part of a broader national movement, with Dr. Samirah highlighting that many view congressional service as a ‘lifelong entitlement rather than a public service.’ He believes term limits will foster a government that works better for all Americans by reducing entrenched practices. Dr. Samirah’s role will involve collaborating with the U.S. Term Limits team to engage Virginia lawmakers and build support for the resolution, aiming to align the state with others advocating for this constitutional change.
