President Joe Biden on Monday called for Supreme Court reforms, including term limits for justices, a binding code of conduct and ethics rules, and for a constitutional amendment to strip presidents of immunity from prosecution.
Presidential immunity
In an op-ed published Monday by The Washington Post, Biden wrote, “This nation was founded on a simple yet profound principle: No one is above the law. Not the president of the United States. Not a justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. No one.”
“President Biden shares the Founders’ belief that the President’s power is limited—not absolute—and must ultimately reside with the people,” a White House official said prior to the op-ed’s publication. “He is calling for a constitutional amendment that makes clear no president is above the law or immune from prosecution for crimes committed while in office.”
Biden will advocate for these reforms during remarks at the LBJ Presidential Library in Austin, Texas, where he will mark the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act.
