Shocking! Biden is now in favor of institutional reforms to the Court? Public support for change may actually mean something! Still, changing life tenure in Art III with legislation is like putting a band aid on a gaping wound that will be subject to legitimate. const challenge. (1/3)

Frustrated by originalist conceptions of the constitution chipping away at our rights? Why not have a meaningful debate about changing the way gov institutions can & should work for citizens today? There’s more support than you may expect! Jefferson was a fan of periodic revision. #Thinkforourselves
