Next week, Joe Biden may present proposals for reforming the U.S. Supreme Court. Among the changes that Biden is looking for are term limits for the justices and a code of ethics. Biden is also expected to call for a constitutional amendment that would limit immunity for the president and for certain elected offices. Karine Jean-Pierre expanded on this concept by saying that Joe Biden believes that those in high office should have accountability, transparency, and be held to high ethics.<\/p>\n

From Politico:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Biden is likely to endorse establishing term limits for justices and an enforceable code of ethics, in an announcement that represents a remarkable shift for a president who had long resisted calls to overhaul the high court.<\/p>\n

He is also expected to push for a constitutional amendment limiting immunity for presidents and certain other officeholders, in a response to the court’s July 1 ruling that presidents are shielded from prosecution for “official acts” during their time in office, in a case brought by former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

The specifics of the proposal remain unclear and could still change, said the people, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal planning.<\/p>\n

Biden is expected to call for the overhaul during a trip to Texas, where he’s set to speak at the Lyndon Baines Johnson presidential library in Austin.<\/p>\n

The White House declined to comment, referring back to press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s remarks on Thursday that Biden “believes if you are serving in high office, you should be held to a transparency, accountability and you should be held to a high ethics.”<\/p>\n

The proposal comes as Biden has grown increasingly critical of the Supreme Court and its decisions, including rulings by its conservative majority that eliminated federal abortion rights, gutted affirmative action in higher education and blocked stricter gun regulations and other priorities of his administration.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
