Política

El presidente de la Cámara, Mike Johnson, propuso una enmienda constitucional que fijaría la Corte Suprema en nueve magistrados, pero la medida fue rechazada por la Cámara de Representantes en Washington. La enmienda necesitaba una mayoría de dos tercios, que no se alcanzó.

La votación quedó 212-206, por debajo del umbral requerido, según informa CBS News. Johnson había impulsado rápidamente la propuesta, pero la mayoría de los demócratas se opusieron, mientras continúan discutiendo la expansión del número de jueces.
