Which amendment limits the president to two terms in office?

The amendment that limits the president to two terms in office is the 22nd Amendment, which was ratified in 1951. This amendment was established in response to Franklin D. Roosevelt's four terms as president, which ultimately set a precedent that some lawmakers felt needed to be formally codified in order to prevent an individual from holding the presidency for an extended period beyond two terms.

The 22nd Amendment specifies that no person can be elected to the office of the President more than twice, thus ensuring a regular transition of leadership and encouraging democratic principles by allowing more individuals the opportunity to serve as president.
