Supreme Court Term Limits and Regular Appointments Act of 2025

This proposal would set a regular schedule for choosing new Supreme Court Justices, rather than waiting for a vacancy. It would also create term limits for Justices, and let them move into a “senior” role after their term. The text also mentions a way to waive the usual approval process for new Justices in some cases. These points come from the bill’s title and section headings: it aims to “establish a process by which the appointment of Supreme Court Justices can occur at regular time intervals,” with sections on term limits, senior justices, and a “waiver of advice and consent authority”.

Key points:

• Who is affected: The Supreme Court and the process of picking Justices.
• What changes: Regular appointment timing; term limits; a senior status option; and a possible waiver of the usual approval process for appointments.
• What’s not detailed in the provided text: The exact length of terms and when changes would start.
