Check out the report released by the President’s own Supreme Court Commission bashing the court packing proposal.
Friend,
The President’s own Commission on the Supreme Court released a report last week that warned that expanding the size of the Court would politicize the Court.
Speak up and tell the Commission: Keep your hands off our Supreme Court. ([link removed])
Some notable quotes from the commission report:
* “Some Commissioners believe that there is a real risk that the willingness of Congress to expand the size of the U.S. Supreme Court could further weaken national and international norms against tampering with independent judiciaries.”
* “The risks of Court expansion are considerable, including that it could undermine the very goal of some of its proponents of restoring the Court’s legitimacy. Recent polls suggest that a majority of the public does not support Court expansion.”
* “Expanding the court could lead to a continuous cycle of future expansions.”
Independent Women’s Law Center has been issuing similar warnings for some time now.
The last thing we need in this country is a politicization of the federal courts… the one branch of government constitutionally established to be fair, impartial, independent, and apolitical.
We urge you to submit your own comments to the Commission telling them to keep their hands off the Court. ([link removed])
Thanks,
Inez Stepman
