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.
