Plan to add six Supreme Court justices sparks size debate
The article questions expanding the Supreme Court to 15 justices under a current plan. It argues the core issue is whether a President may alter the Court’s size at will, a power seen as contrary to the Constitution and Washington’s precedent. It notes broad public insistence on an independent courts system protecting the weak.
