Neil Gorsuch, the Supreme Court justice of the United States, emphasized that an independent judiciary is important.

When asked by President Biden about his proposals to revamp the Supreme Court, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said little. However, he delivered a short message.

Gorsuch, when asked by Shannon Bream, “Fox News Sunday’s” host, about Biden’s suggestions for changes at the Supreme Court in a presidential election season, said that he didn’t want to “get into what is now a politically charged issue.” However, he continued to stress the importance of “an independent judiciary,” especially for those who may not be popular.

It’s for those moments when you’re in the spotlight, or when the government is coming after you. Do you not want an independent, fiercely independent judge to make these decisions and a jury made up of your peers? “Isn’t this your right as an American?” Gorsuch asked. “I just want to say be careful.”

A White House official stated that Biden and Vice-President Harris have called on Congress to impose a code on conduct for the Supreme Court and term limits, while also drafting limitations on presidential immunity.

Gorsuch discussed in the interview that he thinks there are far too many laws and regulations in the U.S. It can be hard for the people, as well as the government, to keep up with them.

The justice who wrote a book called “Overruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law” said that “we need laws in order to stay safe and free,” but too many have led to people breaking the law without meaning to.

Gorsuch stated, “As a Judge now for 18 Years, I have seen case after case where ordinary Americans who were trying to live their life, not harm anyone, and raise their families just got whacked by unexpected laws.”

Gorsuch illustrated his argument by citing the problems Americans had in contacting the IRS hotline for information.

Shannon Bream told Gorsuch, “It turned out that for a time they gave wrong answers around a third of all the time.” When asked why this had happened, he said that the tax code was so complicated.

Gorsuch addressed his approach to conflicts with other branches.

He said, “The Constitution is the answer.”

The Trump appointee noted that Americans must be able trust each other and not all problems need to be solved by distant governments.

Gorsuch said, “My friend [retired Justice] Stephen Breyer once told me, ‘If you listen to anyone for a long time, there’s always something that they’ll say on which we can agree.'” “Maybe that’s where we should begin.”
