Why did FDR want to add more justices to the Supreme Court?

President Roosevelt wanted to prevent the Supreme Court from overturning more New Deal legislation.In 1933, the Supreme Court began to declare some of the New Deal measures favored by FDR as unconstitutional. He considered the Court a threat to his economic program, which he believed would pull the US out of the Great Depression by increasing employment and stabilizing prices.He proposed a scheme to save his reforms by packing the Court with additional justices who would support him. A constitutional amendment would take too long so FDR had his Attorney-General draw up a plan where the President would appoint a new justice for every sitting justice who was over the age of 70.5, up to 6 more justices. Congress refused to pass this bill, but the Supreme Court began to take on a new appearance. Justices began to retire and by the time FDR died, 8 of the 9 justices were his appointment.AnswerHe was hoping to appoint justices that would uphold the Constitutionality of some of his more controversial decisions and support his New Deal legislation.However, the citizens of the United States have a very special regard for the sanctity of the Supreme Court, and the scheme failed. Even members of FDR's own party did not back him on this issue; he was seen as dictatorial. In truth, while the Supreme Court could legally be expanded, it could not practically be done without the consent of Congress.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
