Biden Calls for SCOTUS Overhaul, Incl. Term Limits, Ethics Codes and Barring Presidential Immunity

HeadlineJul 29, 2024

President Biden has called for major reforms to the U.S. Supreme Court, including 18-year term limits, an enforceable code of ethics and a constitutional amendment that would bar immunity for presidents who committed crimes while in office. In a new op-ed for The Washington Post, Biden also cited the 2022 overturning of Roe v. Wade by the far-right court. The president did not, however, call for expanding the Supreme Court, which many Democrats and judicial reform experts have done.
