President Joe Biden has outlined his vision for reforming the U.S. Supreme Court in an opinion piece for the Washington Post.
Biden's "three bold reforms" include ensuring former presidents have no immunity for crimes committed while in office, term limits for Supreme Court justices, and a binding code of conduct for the court.
The president said that the proposed changes aim to restore public trust in the court and ensure accountability.
Biden cited the Supreme Court's recent 6-3 decision to grant presidents broad immunity from prosecution for crimes they commit in office. He said this means that "there are virtually no limits on what a president can do."
