The Supreme Court just fouled our water. Pass the Judiciary Act now!
365 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!
I’m writing after yet another catastrophic and poorly reasoned Supreme Court decision—this one gutting the Clean Water Act—to say that our court has been overtaken by partisan reactionaries and must be fixed. It is doing irreparable harm to Americans.
The Constitution allows Congress to change the number of justices on the Supreme Court—lawmakers have done so seven different times throughout American history. Adding seats to the Court is a practical, proportional response that would allow us to stop the harm being done and restore its balance and integrity. Additionally, setting Supreme Court term limits would be perfectly constitutional and an important part of this effort. Polls show that over two-thirds of all Americans support term limits for justices.In the face of an unaccountable, unethical majority on the Supreme Court determined to strip Americans of our freedoms, we need Congress to deliver the reforms necessary to protect our democracy. That starts with expanding the Court. Please do everything you can to pass Ed Markey’s Judiciary Act of 2023, which does just that. This is an emergency. Thanks.
