The Supreme Court wields immense power over the lives of all Americans, yet it lacks basic ethics rules and accountability measures that ensure impartiality and public trust. Implementing a binding code of ethics and term limits would help restore faith in the Court as a fair, independent, and ethical institution. A 2022 poll found that 72% of voters support Supreme Court term limits, indicating widespread public desire for reform. We must take action to protect the integrity of our judicial system and uphold the democratic ideals of transparency and checks and balances. I urge you to prioritize legislation enforcing ethics standards and reasonable term limits for Supreme Court justices. The future of our democracy depends on a Supreme Court that serves the people, not partisan interests.
