Summary

The Iowa Senate has introduced a joint resolution asking the U.S. Congress to put forward a constitutional amendment that would require the Supreme Court to have exactly nine justices. The resolution does not change Iowa law; it simply calls on the federal government to act. It is intended to preserve the Court’s independence and prevent future changes for political reasons.
