President Joe Biden’s commission tasked with studying potential changes to the structure and size of the Supreme Court held its first meeting on Wednesday, where leaders announced how they will handle questions about court expansion.
The commission, a panel of 36 legal experts co-led by Obama alumni Bob Bauer and Cristina Rodriguez, met in a 20-minute public session in which it laid out a road map for a raft of reform proposals. These include studying the scope of judicial review, calls for term limits or mandatory retirements, and the controversial subject of court-packing.
