A Senate bill that would limit Florida's county commissioners to two terms, or eight consecutive years in office, passed a key committee Monday.
The bill, SB 438, is sponsored by state Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, R-Spring Hill, a former state GOP chairman and top ally of Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Ingoglia sponsored a successful bill for term limits for school board members in 2022 and DeSantis signed the bill. This time, it looked like Ingoglia's latest term-limits attempt could fail, as the Senate Committee on Rules had failed to vote on it. And some county commissioners from across the state showed up to oppose the bill in testimony, according to the Center Square, a state capital news organization.
