for this free virtual event
The Supreme Court is mired in controversy. Public support has collapsed to the lowest level ever recorded in polls. One key reason: unfolding ethics scandals involving undisclosed gifts and dark money groups. Another: hard-right rulings from the Court’s supermajority on landmark cases regarding abortion rights, guns, and affirmative action. Americans deserve a fair and independent judiciary. Is it time to reform the Court? And what can the public, the media, and Congress do to bring accountability to this institution?
Check out the virtual premiere of a previously recorded conversation with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), featuring a live YouTube chat with Brennan Center President Michael Waldman.
