President Biden on Wednesday promised to nominate progressives to the Supreme Court if he wins a second term in the White House.
Biden made the pledge at a "Black Voters for Biden-Harris" rally in Philadelphia, where he predicted that more than one Supreme Court justice will retire in the next four years.
"The next president, they’re going to be able to appoint a couple justices, and I’ll be damned — if in fact we’re able to change some of the justices when they retire and put in really progressive judges like we’ve always had, tell me that won’t change your life," Biden told his audience.
The president's comments emphasize what is at stake in the next election for both conservatives, who have lauded their 6-3 majority on the court in recent years, and progressives who have decried landmark rulings ending federal protections for abortion and expanding gun rights.
