House Democrats push bill that would term limit Supreme Court justices
August 2, 2022
A group of House Democrats on Tuesday introduced a bill that would place term limits on current and new Supreme Court justices.
The bill, "Supreme Court Tenure Establishment and Retirement Modernization (TERM) Act," was introduced by Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., and seeks to amend federal law, placing an 18-year limit on Supreme Court justices while on the bench.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., is introducing a similar bill in the Senate.
