The proposal would expand the Supreme Court from nine justices to thirteen, adding four new seats to the nation's highest court. This would affect how the Court operates and could shift its ideological balance depending on who the President appoints to fill the new positions. The change would require congressional approval and would impact major legal decisions affecting all Americans for decades to come.
