Biden to Unveil Major Supreme Court Reforms on Monday

President Joe Biden is set to announce a proposal for reforming the Supreme Court, which is expected to include term limits for justices and the establishment of a binding code of ethics. Additionally, Biden will advocate for a constitutional amendment to restrict immunity for presidents and certain other officials. This follows a recent Supreme Court ruling that presidents cannot be prosecuted for "official acts" performed while in office, a decision related to a case involving former President Donald Trump.

The proposal comes amid growing concerns about the court's integrity and partisanship, with only 40% of Americans expressing confidence in the judicial body. The reforms aim to address these issues by enhancing transparency, accountability, and ethical standards. Implementing these changes will likely require new legislation from a divided Congress, which is currently controlled by Republicans and Democrats by a slim majority in the Senate. The White House has not commented on the proposal but has reiterated Biden's commitment to high ethical standards in government.
