  1. Tennessee Republicans salivating at the chance to draw out the last Democratic seat in Tennessee We get 40% of our budget from the federal government. At what point to Blue states stop sending us money? This all has a very secession-y vibe to it. #SCOTUSReform #UnpackTheCourt

  6. Each justice would be required to publicly release their opinions & disclose how they voted on issues considered on an emergency basis, sometimes referred to as the #ShadowDocket. Such decisions, which have become more common & increasingly controversial in recent years, don’t identify how each justice voted.

  11. It would require the #IRS to initiate an #audit of the justices’ tax returns each year, release the results & make the tax filings public. Nominees to the court would have to disclose 3 yrs of tax returns.

    Another measure would allow a two-thirds vote of the court to force a fellow justice to #recuse from a case.

  16. The #legislation would also require #SCOTUS nominees to be automatically scheduled for a vote in the #Senate if their nominations have lingered in committee for >180 days.
    
The measure would prevent senators from blocking a president’s nominees by refusing to hold a vote on them, as then-Senate Majority Leader #MitchMcConnell (R-KY) did after President Barack #Obama’s nomination of #MerrickGarland in 2016.

  21. During the rollout, each president would approve justices in the first & third year of their terms.
    
The bill would also require a ruling by ⅔ of the high court & the circuit courts of appeals, rather than a simple majority, to overturn a #law passed by #Congress. #Wyden said the current court has been too quick to discard #precedent & curtail #rights by narrow majorities.
