Changing Members is the first systematic examination of the impact of term limits on a single state legislature. Using Maine as a case study_because it is the first state in the entire nation where legislative term limits took effect in both chambers_the book shows how term limits shape legislative operations, redistribute political power, and change the very members elected to serve.
