Cut corruption and expand the court | Letter to the editor

We need Supreme Court reform. We can start with expanding the court to 13 justices that reflect our country.

The current Supreme Court is no longer a viable part of checks and balances. Because it now reflects billionaires who prefer to buy a SCOTUS justice instead of building rockets into space or touring the Titanic, it’s no longer trustworthy. Because of the level of corruption from Chief Justice Roberts to justices seated during Trump’s presidency, the few ethical justices are tarred with the same proverbial brush.

We must have legislation that checks the SCOTUS and returns the “balance” to “checks and balances.”
