El Salvador's legislature passes constitutional reforms extending presidential terms from five to six years and allowing indefinite re-election.

The country’s presidential terms were initially five years long and immediate re-election was prohibited. However, in 2021, the country’s Supreme Court — packed with justices picked by Bukele’s party — ruled that the president could seek a second term, The Associated Press reported.
Critics said Bukele's re-election in 2024 was unconstitutional.
