Biden on Supreme Court

President Joe Biden has proposed significant reforms aimed at enhancing the integrity and independence of the Supreme Court, as well as ensuring accountability for former Presidents. His proposals include a constitutional amendment to eliminate presidential immunity for crimes committed while in office, which he has termed the 'No One Is Above the Law Amendment.' Additionally, Biden advocates for 18-year term limits for Supreme Court Justices to promote turnover and reduce the influence of any single Presidency. He is also pushing for a binding code of conduct that would enforce ethical standards for Justices amidst recent controversies surrounding their conduct, including undisclosed gifts and luxury travel. Critics raise concerns about the feasibility of these reforms and their potential impacts on judicial independence and political motivations. Biden’s initiatives aim to address growing skepticism about the Supreme Court's impartiality and restore public trust in the judicial system.
