Hi,

President Biden and Vice President Harris just endorsed major Supreme
Court reforms to rein in the power that right-wing justices like Clarence
Thomas and Samuel Alito have abused for far too long.^1

The policies include a SCOTUS ethics act and term limits for the Supreme
Court. Biden wrote in the Washington Post that, “What is happening now is
not normal, and it undermines the public’s confidence in the court’s
decisions.”^2

It’s not normal to grant presidents “absolute immunity” in a democracy.
It’s not normal to hand over massive powers to corporations while hobbling
federal regulatory powers. It’s not normal to overturn Roe v. Wade and
take away reproductive freedoms from Americans. Congress must use its
power to pass a binding, enforceable code of ethics for the Supreme Court
and establish term limits for justices.

Supreme Court! Rein in the power of corrupt, right-wing justices like
Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

SCOTUS rulings led by conservative justices over the last few decades
threaten our rights, freedoms, and safety. The recent rulings in the Trump
immunity case and Chevron bring that reality into sharper focus.

If term limits were in place, Thomas and Alito likely would have been OFF
the Court before they helped the right-wing majority decide these recent
cases that threaten democracy and boost corporate power. If a SCOTUS
ethics act were in place, Thomas and Alito could have been barred from
ruling on the Trump immunity case due to conflicts of interest. They, and
the other right-wing justices on the Court, could be held accountable for
their long list of corruption scandals.

Majorities in Congress must join the calls from Pres. Biden and VP Harris
to reform the corrupt Supreme Court.
