Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said he would form a commission to evaluate the Supreme Court, when he was asked about expanding the court past the current threshold of nine justices.

The move, or “packing the court,” has been floated by a number of Democratic lawmakers after Republicans moved to nominate and have all but confirmed Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court following Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death in September.
