Terrell Williams Named Delaware State Co-Chair for U.S. Term Limits

U.S. Term Limits announced today that Terrell A. Williams has agreed to serve as Delaware State Co-Chair for the organization, which advocates for term limits on members of Congress. Williams, a federal civil service professional, civil rights advocate, legal scholar, educator, and military veteran, will help lead efforts to enact congressional term limits and restore accountability in Washington, D.C.

“I am honored to serve as Delaware State Co-Chair for U.S. Term Limits and help advance this important effort,” said Williams. “Americans across the political spectrum are frustrated with career politicians and the dysfunction that has become normalized in Washington. Congressional term limits are a common-sense reform that can help restore trust, accountability, and citizen leadership in government.”

Williams emphasized the constitutional role states can play in advancing term limits. “The Constitution provides the states with a pathway to act, and Delaware has the opportunity to help lead the nation toward meaningful change,” he said. “Our citizens deserve fresh perspectives, responsive leadership, and representatives who remain connected to the people they serve.”

Williams brings a depth of experience to the role. He serves with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, enforcing federal laws and constitutional safeguards. He is also an Adjunct Professor at Lincoln University and Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law. A Delaware resident for more than a decade, he earned his Juris Doctor from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, a Master's degree in Public Administration, and a Bachelor's degree in Social Relations from Cheyney University. He honorably served in the United States Army and the Pennsylvania National Guard.

“We are honored to have Terrell Williams helping lead our efforts in Delaware,” said Philip Blumel, President of U.S. Term Limits. “His background in public service, civil rights, education, and constitutional law make him an outstanding advocate for congressional term limits. Terrell understands the importance of accountability in government, and we are confident his leadership will help build strong momentum for term limits reform in Delaware.”

U.S. Term Limits is the largest grassroots term limits advocacy group in the country, connecting supporters with legislators and working to pass term limits at all levels of government. The appointment of Williams signals continued efforts to build state-level support for a constitutional amendment or other mechanisms to limit congressional terms.
