How the bipartisan Keep Nine initiative aims to protect the Supreme Court

The recent discussions about court-packing have given momentum to the bipartisan Keep Nine initiative. Democrats, independents, and Republicans alike have come together to oppose this short-sighted move, garnering support from key groups from even the far Left.

I spoke with Paul Summers, former attorney general of Tennessee, who serves as a chairman of the Keep Nine initiative. With experience as an elected district attorney, appellate court judge, senior judge, and later attorney general, he has seen the judicial system from many different angles. “Independent judiciary is the crown jewel of our democratic republic,” he said.
