Well, the fact that the proposal would require a supermajority in both houses to override a supreme court ruling is something of a small comfort.
However, the language with which this bill has been introduced, and the reasons given for its introduction strike me as being designed to find a way to sacrifice individual freedoms protected by the courts on the altar of the tyranny of the majority.
