Biden considering proposals to reform Supreme Court

Washington — President Biden is considering a series of proposals to reform the Supreme Court, including measures to establish term limits for justices and an enforceable ethics code, CBS News has learned.

Any plans would require approval from Congress. The Washington Post was first to report Mr. Biden's expected support for changes to the Supreme Court.

The president revealed in a call with the Congressional Progressive Caucus on Saturday that he's been working with experts on proposals to reform the nation's highest court to be announced soon, a source familiar with the call confirmed to CBS News. Mr. Biden did not tell the group what his plans are, but his willingness to engage on the issue marks a change for the president, who led the Judiciary Committee while serving in the Senate.
