Biden to Endorse Supreme Court Term Limits and Ethics Code

President Biden plans to propose significant reforms for the Supreme Court, including term limits and a binding ethics code for justices.

Biden's proposal includes 18-year term limits for Supreme Court justices, which would require a constitutional amendment to enact.
A binding code of ethics for justices is also part of the proposed reforms, addressing issues like gift limits and recusal rules.
The proposed term limits enjoy broad public support, but face significant legal and political hurdles, including likely challenges in the Supreme Court.
Biden's move is seen as an effort to address declining public trust in the Supreme Court and to energize his political base.
Critics argue that the reforms could further politicize the Court and face strong opposition from Republicans in Congress.
