Biden's Supreme Court Reform Plan Faces Major Hurdles

Outgoing President Biden proposes term limits and ethics codes for justices, but faces significant legislative and constitutional challenges.

Biden's plan includes an 18-year term limit for Supreme Court justices, requiring legislative approval and likely facing legal challenges.
The proposal also seeks a constitutional amendment to limit presidential immunity, which is seen as practically unattainable.
Biden aims to implement a Supreme Court code of ethics with enforceable mechanisms, though its passage through Congress is uncertain.
Critics argue that the reforms could undermine the independence of the judiciary and blur the separation of powers.
Despite the ambitious goals, the reforms are unlikely to advance significantly before Biden leaves office.
