Packing the Supreme Court Would Undermine the Rule of Law | Independent Women's Forum


WASHINGTON, D.C. —
Independent Women’s Forum and Independent Women’s Law Center oppose President Biden’s creation of a Commission to examine possible ways to alter  the U.S. Supreme Court. 
Jennifer Braceras, director of the Independent Women’s Law Center, said, “The Supreme Court does not need ‘reforming.’ Proposals to add additional justices or to impose term limits are thinly veiled attempts to control judicial outcomes. Such efforts threaten the independence of our federal judiciary and undermine the rule of law.”
Federal judges are supposed to render decisions fairly and objectively on the basis of the law and the facts of a given case. In other words, they are not supposed to bend to political opinion. Yet, the entire premise of the Biden commission is that the Court should be more responsive to the will of the people.
