      "title": "Senate Select Committee on Intelligence: Term Limits and Assignment Limitations",
      "summary": "The 2005 Intelligence Authorization bill ( S. 2386 ) as reported by the Senate Intelligence\nCommittee contains a provision repealing term limits for committee members. \n(1)  The  9/11\nCommission Report  recommended that the eight-year term limit for members serving on the\nIntelligence Committee be abolished.  S.Res. 445 , introduced by Rules and\nAdministration Committee Chairman Trent Lott on October 1, 2004, reported from that committee\nby a vote of 12-0 on October 5, 2004, and agreed to October 9, by a vote of 79-6, eliminated term\nlimits for Intelligence Committee members.\n  The 9/11 Commission also recommended that the committee be smaller, seven or nine\n members\n(it currently has 17 voting members), and four of the members who serve on the Intelligence\nCommittee should also serve on the Committees on Armed Services, Judiciary, or Foreign Relations,\nor the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee. The bipartisan working group of Senators also\nrecommended designated membership representation from the Appropriations, Armed Services,\nForeign Relations, and Judiciary Committees. S. Res. 445 provides that the committee have no more\nthan 15 members and designates that two members each from the Committees on Appropriations,\nArmed Services, Judiciary, and Foreign Relations serve on the Intelligence Committee..\n  This report addresses issues related to the impact on the Intelligence Committee if term limits\nare abolished and other assignment questions addressed in S. Res. 445. This report will be updated\nas events warrant.\n     1.  \u00a0The provision was struck during floor consideration after\npassage of S.Res. 445.",
