House Democrats on Wednesday pushed to allow the Biden administration to oversee the largest expansion of federal district courts in 30 years.

Citing unmanageable caseloads in courts across the country, they chafed at Republican suggestions for bipartisan court expansion that would take place over the course of multiple administrations.
