On Monday, President Joe Biden proposed sweeping changes to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS), including term limits and a binding code of conduct for its nine justices, but a deeply divided Congress means the proposals have little chance of enactment.
Biden called for the revamp, as well a constitutional amendment to eliminate broad presidential immunity recognized in a July 1 Supreme Court ruling involving former President Donald Trump, in an opinion piece published in The Washington Post. Biden is due to deliver a speech at the presidential library of former President Lyndon B. Johnson in Austin, Texas, later in the day.
"This nation was founded on a simple yet profound principle: No one is above the law. Not the president of the United States. Not a justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. No one," Biden wrote in the opinion piece.
