A proposal by a group of Democrats to expand the Supreme Court would “further polarize and tear apart this country,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) said Thursday as he pushed his bill to limit how long justices sit on the court.

“The proposal I have has been, 18 years as a Supreme Court justice. By the way, I’m for term limits for members of Congress and senators as well. I just think if you’re in public service, it’s a democracy, these aren’t lifetime positions, and I think that would get at the problem and de-politicize it. I don’t want to see, whether it’s for Republicans or for Democrats, the court shouldn’t be politicized,” Khanna said on Fox News Radio.
