July 26 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden will announce plans to reform the Supreme Court on Monday, Politico reported citing two people familiar with the matter, adding he was likely to back term limits for justices and an enforceable code of ethics.
Biden said earlier this week during an Oval Office address that he would call for reform of the court.
He is also expected to seek a constitutional amendment to limit immunity for presidents and some other officeholders, Politico reported, in the aftermath of a July Supreme Court ruling that presidents have broad immunity from prosecution.
Biden will make the announcement in Texas on Monday and the specific proposals could change, the report added.

we didn't get our way, so we are changing the rules so we DO get our way! this will not backfire at all. republicans won't do similar things in the future or use these rules in a way we don't like.

term limits for justices and bringing back the 60 vote requirement would be good though.

Let's not forget they're in this mess exactly because they kept changing rules involving recognizing judges only to see Republicans line up for a headshot using those same rules changes.
The filibuster in particular Republicans told them was going to blow up in their face the second they got back Congress.

That's not a problem with the change, that's a problem with the populace voting for the wrong thing in ✨bad faith✨ so that's what needs fixing
