EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage American cartoon from 1937 captures the political struggle faced by President Franklin D. Roosevelt as he tries to push his Supreme Court reform plan through the U. S. Senate. The image depicts FDR, known for his ambitious and progressive policies, attempting what seems like an impossible task - pulling a massive dome representing the Supreme Court uphill towards the Capitol Hill. The symbolism in this cartoon is striking; it represents the immense challenge that Roosevelt faced in trying to reshape the composition of the Supreme Court to align with his Democratic Party's agenda. This plan, commonly referred to as "court-packing" aimed to increase the number of justices on the court and ensure more favorable rulings for Roosevelt's New Deal policies. However, as shown by the camel accompanying FDR in this artwork, which symbolizes resistance or stubbornness, many senators were opposed to this reform effort. They saw it as an overreach of executive power and a threat to judicial independence. Despite Roosevelt's determination and popularity at that time, ultimately his Supreme Court reform plan did not succeed. Nevertheless, this cartoon serves as a reminder of one of FDR's major political acts during his presidency and highlights both his ambition and challenges faced within American politics during this era.
