Biden's Supreme Court commission: Who's on it?
Fox News
President Biden's Supreme Court commission includes a variety of primarily liberal legal experts, with some conservatives as well, and is tasked with providing the president with a report on the current debate around potential reforms to the court, including court packing.
"This faux-academic study of a nonexistent problem fits squarely within liberals' yearslong campaign to politicize the Court, intimidate its members, and subvert its independence," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said. "It’s just an attempt to clothe those ongoing attacks in fake legitimacy." The group's fundamental task, according to Biden's executive order that created the commission, is to write an "account of the contemporary commentary and debate about the role and operation of the Supreme Court in our constitutional system and about the functioning of the constitutional process by which the President nominates and, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, appoints Justices to the Supreme Court." This is to include "historical background" and arguments "for and against Supreme Court reform, including an appraisal of the merits and legality of particular reform proposals."More Related News
