Overturnsupreme Court Decisions Would Supreme Cou
For 3 points, write up to 300 words to justify the case for one side of the following
debate
Pro: The U.S. Supreme Court has become too powerful, as its decisions can only be
reversed by a constitutional amendment requiring a 2/3rds vote of both Houses of
Congress and the approval of 3/4ths of the states. The Constitution should be changed
to allow 3/5ths of both Houses and the Congress along with the president to overturn
Court decisions. This change would make the Supreme Court more accountable to the
public.
Con: Making it easier to overturn Supreme Court decisions would be a mistake. In
many cases, the Congress and the president need to be checked by the Supreme Court
— even when the majority of the public is clearly against the decisions of the Court.
Protecting minority rights is paramount in a democracy; making it easier to overturn
Supreme Court decisions would probably make the task of ensuring these rights more
difficult.
