I'm asking you to support comprehensive Supreme Court reform, including term limits, enforceable ethics rules, and expansion of the court. The current system has failed, and recent events make that impossible to ignore. All six Republican-appointed justices attended a White House state dinner hours before releasing a 6-3 decision gutting the Voting Rights Act. None of the three Democratic-appointed justices were there. Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett made up nearly 10% of the guest list at a partisan political event, then delivered a major ruling the next morning that aligned perfectly with the administration's agenda. The court adopted a code of conduct in 2023, but it has no enforcement mechanism. It's meaningless. Roberts himself wrote about judges serving as a "counter-majoritarian check on the political branches," but you can't check political power while accepting presidential hospitality and then ruling in that president's favor. This court has become a political football. It has lost legitimacy with the American people. We need structural reform now—term limits to end lifetime appointments, binding ethics rules with real consequences, and expansion to rebalance a court that was packed through hardball tactics. The current situation is unsustainable.
