President Biden proposed significant reforms to the U.S. Supreme Court, including 18-year term limits for justices and an enforceable ethics code, during a speech marking the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act. He criticized the current court's lack of self-policing and called for changes to presidential immunity. The proposal has drawn mixed reactions, with Democrats supporting it and Republicans opposing it, claiming it undermines judicial independence.
