American Independent: The GOP packed the court with right-wingers. Biden wants to know how to fix it.
This excerpt is from an op-ed that originally ran on January 29, 2021.
Nan Aron, founder and president of Alliance for Justice, said in an interview on Thursday that she hopes the commission will focus on articulating the need to expand the Supreme Court rather than on minor “technical reforms,” given the “danger liberal values will confront at the hands of hard-right justices.”
“This is a court that has embraced extremism across the board, and a report that recommends smaller goals won’t address the critical problems posed by the Supreme Court to access to justice by everyday Americans,” Aron said. Instead, she hopes that the commission will “reassert balance” on a Supreme Court that is “now in the power grip of hard-right, anti-democratic justices.”
