President Franklin Roosevelt reacted to the Supreme Court declaring some of his New Deal programs unconstitutional by proposing the Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937, commonly known as the court-packing plan. This controversial proposal aimed to increase the number of justices on the Supreme Court, allowing him to appoint additional judges who would be more favorable to his policies. The plan faced significant backlash from both political opponents and members of his own party, ultimately leading to its failure. Despite this setback, Roosevelt's administration continued to implement various reforms that adapted to the Court's rulings.
