A new poll shows the majority of Americans support term limits for U.S. Supreme Court Justices.

The poll was conducted following multiple high-profile Supreme Court rulings, including the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and remove constitutional protections on abortion. Just over half of poll respondents said they disapproved of the decision and that it made them “angry” or “sad.”

House Democrats introduced a bill on Tuesday to require term limits for U.S. Supreme Court Justices.

Congo to Auction off Land to Oil Companies

The Democratic Republic of Congo is auctioning off vast parts of land, potentially becoming a new hotspot for oil investments. The region holds one of the Earth's largest old-growth rainforests.

The new selling of land comes after Congo’s president, Félix Tshisekedi, endorsed a 10-year agreement to protect its rainforest at the global climate summit in Glasgow. 

Tosi Mpanu, Congo’s lead representative on climate issues, said Congo’s primary goal for the auction is to earn enough funds to help the nation generate economic growth and reduce poverty.
