Res. 1, a proposed constitutional amendment to keep the U.S. Supreme Court at nine justices. “The Supreme Court should remain an independent institution, not a political tool whose size changes based on who holds power in Washington,” Fedorchak said. “Nine justices have served our country for generations. Putting that number in the Constitution would provide stability and protect the Court from political attempts to change its size.” H.J. Res. 1 would amend the U.S. Constitution to establish nine Supreme Court justices, consisting of one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices. The amendment would require ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures within seven years. | 1 | 2026-09-04T09:19:37Z | 2026-09-04T09:20:58Z |
