An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Reform the Supreme Court - Start Now.

The Supreme Court needs structural reform, and I want you to act on it. That, in my view will likely need to include more justices to the Court, limiting the terms of their appointments, and removing by forced resignation, or impeachment the worst offenders of our Constitution. Chief Justice Roberts recently told a judicial conference that the public's view of the Court as political is "not an accurate understanding" — a claim he made one week after the Republican majority overrode the plain text of the Voting Rights Act and the Constitution to gut protections for voters of color. He’s wrong. He and his five other extremist judges, are the ones that have severely damaged the reputation of the court, abused their powers, and crushed Voting Rights, Women’s Rights, Immigrant Rights, and have sought to twist the law in favor of power, not justice. The Court's approval has been below 50% since the current six-justice Republican majority was seated in 2020, dropped below 40% last year for the first time since Gallup began tracking it, and a 2024 AP poll found 7 in 10 Americans believe justices are primarily driven by ideology. Roberts, Gorsuch, and Barrett are making the media rounds insisting the Court isn't broken. That's exactly the tell. Guilty. These public statements aren't reassurance — they're a strategy to head off reform before it gains traction. In 2025, Roberts defended life tenure in his annual report at a moment when 69% of Americans supported term limits. The justices want to keep issuing politically favorable rulings without triggering the accountability that a genuinely independent court wouldn't fear. I and a huge majority of Americans support Supreme Court reform legislation — including term limits, an enforceable ethics code, as well as expanding the bench. The public is paying attention, and I expect you to be on the right side of history. Thank you.
