Answer 2

Answer:

Packing the court with six more justices.

Explanation:

Roosevelt tried to pack the court with the Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937. This was a legislative plan proposed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The purpose of the bill was to add more justices to the U.S. Supreme Court in order to obtain more favourable rulings. Roosevelt was concerned by the fact that the Supreme Court had found some of his New Deal programs unconstitutional, as they considered that the exceeded the constitutional authority of the government. The bill ultimately failed.
