A constitutional amendment is required because the structure and laws governing the judiciary are mandated by and enumerated in the Constitution. A Constitutional amendment would require approval by and of two-thirds of all of the 50 state legislatures (34 of them) before becoming law. The process is complex and literally takes years. It’s NOT approval by two-thirds of the sitting members of Congress that gets this kind of thing done. These people are truly clueless. And they hold elective office?

Ratification of a constitutional amendment requires approval by 3/4 of the states (38) not 2/3 (34).

Incorrect. It would require ratification by three fourths of the states (38).

They’re evil, not stupid.

The people pushing this know that they have an historically weak candidate, and they desperately need people talking about anything but Kamala.

Plus it ties into their fake outrage over Dobbs “Supreme Court Bad” has been their rallying cry for years now. Of course, they’re not really upset over Dobbs...it’s given them a huge bump in fundraising and an issue that they can run on in Blue states for the foreseeable future.

Pure focus-group electoral cynicism on full display.
