Kamala Harris Signals Support for Supreme Court Reform Bill

Proposed legislation includes 18-year term limits and biennial appointments for justices, aiming to reshape the judiciary.

  • Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse revealed Harris's alignment with his court reform bill during the Democratic National Convention.
  • The bill proposes appointing a new Supreme Court justice every two years and enforcing 18-year term limits.
  • Democrats plan to pass the bill by a simple majority if they gain control of Congress and the White House.
  • The reform is part of a broader legislative package addressing abortion rights, voting rights, and campaign finance reform.
  • Critics argue the bill is unconstitutional and accuse it of being a court-packing strategy.
