Kamala Harris Supports Supreme Court Reform Bill
News summary

Vice President Kamala Harris has signaled her support for a proposed radical overhaul of the U.S. Supreme Court introduced by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, which would allow for a new justice to be appointed every two years. While her campaign has not formally endorsed the legislation, they have indicated that it aligns closely with the administration's vision for judicial reform. This proposal aims to regularize appointments and impose 18-year term limits on justices, addressing concerns about the Supreme Court's current structure. The bill would restrict only the nine most recently appointed justices to preside over significant cases, potentially reshaping the court's influence. Harris had previously expressed openness to the idea of expanding the Supreme Court during her 2019 presidential campaign, indicating a willingness to explore various reforms. The proposed changes are part of a broader Democratic strategy to regain influence over the judiciary, particularly following perceived shifts towards a conservative majority under former President Trump.
