Biden unveils proposals to reform US Supreme Court
ai generated text
US President Joe Biden has proposed a series of reforms to the Supreme Court, including a constitutional amendment to reverse the court's recent ruling on presidential immunity, which was in favor of Donald Trump. Biden also wants to introduce term limits for Supreme Court justices, who currently serve for life, and establish an enforceable ethics code to address a string of scandals. To become a reality, these proposals would need to pass through Congress with a two-thirds majority. The reforms are seen as a way to address concerns about the court's conservative lean and to galvanize voters ahead of the election.
Extremism is undermining the public confidence in the court's decisions.
For example, Project 2025 calls for aggressively attacking diversity, equity and inclusion all across all aspects of American life. This extreme Maga movement even proposes to end birthright citizenship. This is how far they've come.
What is happening now is not normal, and it undermines the public's confidence in the court's decisions, including those impacting personal freedoms. We now stand in a breach.
Every other federal judge is bound by an enforceable code of conduct.
They ruled, as you know, that the president of the United States has immunity for potential crimes he may have committed while in office, immunity. This nation is founded on the principle that there are no kings in America. Each of us is equal before the law. No one is above the law!
