DOVER, Del. — U.S. Term Limits, the nation's largest grassroots advocacy group for term limits, announced today that Terrell A. Williams has agreed to serve as Delaware State Co-Chair. Williams, a federal civil service professional, civil rights advocate, legal scholar, educator, and military veteran, will help advance the push for congressional term limits to restore accountability in Washington.
"I am honored to serve as Delaware State Co-Chair for U.S. Term Limits and help advance this important effort," Williams said in a statement. "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 believes Delaware can play a pivotal role in advancing term limits, a reform supported by a majority of Americans. "When government becomes more focused on preserving political power than serving the people, reform becomes necessary," he said. "The Constitution provides the states with a pathway to act, and Delaware has the opportunity to help lead the nation toward meaningful change. Our citizens deserve fresh perspectives, responsive leadership, and representatives who remain connected to the people they serve."
Williams serves with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, where he works to protect individuals' civil rights through enforcement of federal laws and constitutional safeguards. He is also an Adjunct Professor at Lincoln University and Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law, preparing future legal professionals. A Delaware resident for over a decade, he remains active in the Middletown, Odessa, and Townsend communities. Williams earned his Juris Doctor from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, a Master's in Public Administration, and a Bachelor's in Social Relations from Cheyney University. He is a proud veteran of the U.S. Army and 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 connects supporters with legislators and works to pass term limits at all levels of government, particularly for Congress. More information is available at termlimits.org. The appointment underscores the growing momentum for term limits as a means to address political dysfunction and careerism in Washington.
