President Joe Biden will stand aside as Democrats in Congress debate a bill that proposes adding four seats to the Supreme Court, ending the bench's conservative majority.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki declined to say on Thursday whether Biden was frustrated with a group of his Democratic colleagues for introducing the measure before his court commission had started compiling its report on federal judicial reform.
"He certainly understands that members of Congress have a range of views, and they're going to propose legislation. He may or may not support it," Psaki told reporters of the 36-year Senate veteran.
