What to know about President Biden’s election-year proposals to change the Supreme Court
WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden is using his final six months in office to push sweeping changes to the Supreme Court and a constitutional amendment to ensure that presidents are not immune from criminal prosecution.
Although he’s no longer a candidate himself, Biden is making this a big issue for his final months as president − and handing Vice President Kamala Harris, the new presumptive See More Democratic nominee, a hot-button topic to hit on the campaign trail and energize voters who are increasingly skeptical of the highest court in the land.
But don’t expect Biden to take the step that the left-wing flank of his party wants: a bigger Supreme Court packed with Democratic picks to balance out the conservative supermajority that overturned Roe v. Wade, scaled back gun control laws, and raised questions about the future of same-sex marriage.
Here is what to expect from Biden’s Supreme Court overhaul package.
