Supreme Court term-limits amendment proposed by Sens. Manchin and Welch The long-shot proposal by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin III (I-West Virginia) would impose 18-year term limits on new justices.
Thursday’s joint resolution is the latest and most ambitious step in the years-long effort to make substantive changes to the Supreme Court following outrage over ethics scandals involving Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. and rulings from the 6-3 conservative supermajority that have overturned legal precidents https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/12/07/supreme-court-term-limits-amendment-manchin-welch/
Congress can remove justices anytime they want if they are too old to serve and won't step down. There's no reason to have a limit like this, it effectively excuses our congresspeople from doing their jobs.
