Commission on Court-Packing

NCLA’s Executive Director and General Counsel Mark Chenoweth joins “The Drew Mariani Show” to discuss President Biden’s executive order that has created a commission to report on possible changes to the Supreme Court’s membership, jurisdiction and lifetime terms.

Key takeaways:

• None of the proposed changes given to the new commission for research are constitutional. They would all require a constitutional amendment.

• In light of these possible changes, Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer expressed his opinion that the Court operates on trust, not politics.
