The Supreme Court has issued major recent decisions involving voting rights, elections, and the Trump administration, and Hakeem Jeffries has been an outspoken critic of several of them.

Jeffries has also called for significant Supreme Court reform, making him an important participant in the broader political debate over the Court.
