Sheldon Whitehouse’s Court-Packing Plan Is Unconstitutional

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse's proposal to expand the Supreme Court faces strong criticism as unconstitutional by some legal experts. The plan, which aims to add more justices to the Court, is argued to undermine the delicate balance of power and the rule of law. Opponents warn that such a move would erode the independence of the judiciary, potentially leading to a political takeover of the Court. This debate is significant as it touches on fundamental questions about the role and limits of legislative power in shaping the judiciary.
