Term limits exist for one simple reason: to make sure your elected officials work for you — not for themselves. Without them, career politicians entrench themselves in power, lose touch with the people they represent, and begin serving their own interests instead of yours. Chris Kelstrom fought to bring term limits to Shasta County because he believes public office is a privilege, not a career. When politicians know their time is limited, they spend that time doing the job — not protecting their seat.
