US president also to seek constitutional amendment to limit immunity for presidents and various officeholders
Joe Biden will announce plans to reform the US supreme court on Monday, Politico reported, citing two people familiar with the matter, adding that the US president was likely to back term limits for justices and an enforceable code of ethics.
Biden said earlier this week during an Oval Office address that he would call for reform of the court.
He is also expected to seek a constitutional amendment to limit immunity for presidents and some other officeholders, Politico reported, in the aftermath of a July supreme court ruling that presidents have broad immunity from prosecution.
Biden will make the announcement in Texas on Monday and the specific proposals could change, the report added.
It doesn’t. Sometimes adults lie to you because they have an agenda.
Being capped at serving for x (ie: 8) years though would help prevent the situation we’re in now as well as the need to worry about performance reviews by the electorate or congress.
Yeah I don’t really see the line of reasoning either. Term limits doesn’t automatically mean 4 year terms and re-election campaigns. It can just be single 8-10 year terms or retirement age, whatever comes first.
