President Joe Biden has suggested he will appoint progressive justices to the Supreme Court if he wins a second term in the White House in November.The conservative justices appointed by his rival, former President Donald Trump, are "already gutting voting rights, overturning Roe, decimating affirmative action, and so much more," Biden said.
The comments serve as a warning about the high stakes of November's election, given Trump's appointment of three justices in one term in office cemented the Supreme Court's 6-3 conservative majority.
If Biden wins in November and has the opportunity to nominate justices to replace any who retire, his appointments could affect the county for decades.
Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, has promised to appoint more conservative justices if he wins back the White House.
Biden's comments on Wednesday were part of a renewed effort to mobilize Black voters ahead of November's election.
