Representative Green's Original Legislation to increase from 9 to 13 the number of justices of the Supreme Court.

This legislative proposal aims to significantly alter the composition of the Supreme Court of the United States by amending Section 1 of title 28, United States Code. The bill mandates an increase in the number of associate justices from the current eight to twelve, thereby expanding the total number of justices on the Supreme Court to thirteen, including the Chief Justice. This change directly impacts the Court's size and potential operational dynamics. Additionally, the legislation adjusts the quorum requirement for the Court's proceedings, raising the minimum number of justices needed to conduct official business from six to eight. This ensures a larger representation of the expanded Court is present for decisions.
