Biden Vetoes Judges Act of 2024 on December 23, Blocking Addition of 66 Federal Judges Amid Court Case Backlog
Dec 24, 2024, 03:30 AM
On December 23, 2024, President Joe Biden vetoed the Judges Act of 2024, which aimed to add 66 new judges to federal courts across the United States. The legislation, which had received bipartisan support, was intended to address the backlog in court cases. However, Biden expressed concerns regarding the 'hurried' nature of the House's actions and the implications of such a rapid expansion of the judiciary. The veto has ignited discussions among lawmakers and legal experts about the potential political motivations behind the bill and its impact on the judicial system. This marks the first significant attempt to expand the federal judiciary since 1990.
