House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has asked the leaders of President Biden's panel probing an expansion of the Supreme Court to turn over their communications with each other and the White House.
Mr. Jordan’s request on Friday was joined by the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, Sen. Charles E. Grassley of Iowa and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
The letter was sent to Robert Bauer and Christina Rodriguez, who led the president’s commission. They were given until March 10 to turn over documents and communications to the committee. The commission held a few public meetings and eventually issued a report in 2021 splitting over the controversial issue of whether the president should expand the court. The panel did, however, suggest justices should be subject to an 18-year term limit instead of serving on the court for life.
