Senate report on the Supreme Corp

They rightly demonstrate the political nature of the Corp influenced by dark money:

"Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation was just the latest success for these dark-money actors, and all signs point toward the Court continuing its assault on our Constitution and the American people going forward." 

They suggest as remedies for "Congress to pass legislation that would codify rights endangered by the bench's ideological balance, such as abortion and ballot access, and impose strict ethical requirements on the Supreme Court and the rest of the judiciary to expose and insulate the courts from big-money influence."

They also called on Biden's biased and ineffective commission to address the situation, a waste of time. Most importantly, they did not recommend court packing or term limits, the necessary conditions to actually remedy the Corp's prejudice. As to what they did recommend, like most Democratic solutions it seems more like cheap talk to pretend commitment and cover for what they never intend to be implemented.
