Ro Khanna argues ‘regressive’ Supreme Court rulings show court must be overhauled
"Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) reupped his calls to reform the Supreme Court after the high court made three rulings this week striking down student loan forgiveness, ruling businesses can reject LGBTQ customers and banning affirmative action in college admissions.
“This is a court that is out of touch, with attacks on modern life,” Khanna argued in an interview with The Guardian shared on Saturday. “It’s a court that is regressive, that is rolling back women’s rights, rolling back rights about racial equality, rolling back environmental protections, rolling back now assistance for young people.”
“And it’s exactly why we need term limits on these supreme court justices,” he added.
Khanna, a member of the House Progressive Caucus, has long advocated for measures to completely cancel federal student loan debt, a move far beyond what President Biden attempted to do with the plan shut down by the court."
