Listen Later

Biden’s Supreme Court reforms. On Monday, President Joe Biden proposed a set of reforms for the U.S. Supreme Court. The proposal recommends two new laws: one that sets an 18-year term limit for justices, and another that creates an enforceable code of conduct and ethics rules for the court. Additionally, Biden called for a constitutional amendment ensuring that presidents do not have immunity from federal criminal indictment, trial, conviction, or sentencing upon leaving office.


We previously covered Democrats’ effort to reform the Supreme Court herehere, and here.
