Mitch McConnell and Neil Gorsuch shake hands weeks after Trump’s inauguration.

SIGN THE PETITION: The U.S. Senate must investigate Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch for corruption and require strong ethics for our Supreme Court.

Chief Justice John Roberts just REFUSED a request from Democratic senators to testify about the future of ethics and the Supreme Court, in light of Clarence Thomas’s recent corruption scandal.

This comes as Politico reports that another Justice -- Neil Gorsuch, appointed by Trump -- may have failed to disclose that the buyer of a $1.8 million property Gorsuch sold shortly after being confirmed was a rich lawyer whose firm frequently has cases before the Supreme Court.

Currently, Supreme Court Justices do not live by the same ethics rules as other federal judges. Meaning, if a judge gets elevated to the highest court in the land, their ethical standards go down!

SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: "This Supreme Court is increasingly facing a legitimacy crisis, which is made larger by the latest Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch ethics scandals. The U.S. Senate must launch a full investigation into Thomas and Gorsuch and take steps to pass legislation requiring strong ethics for our Supreme Court."

Days after ProPublica’s bombshell report exposing that Thomas failed to disclose millions of dollars in luxury travel and accommodations from conservative billionaire Harlan Crow, Politico reports that a rich lawyer whose firm frequently has business in front of the Supreme Court bought property from Neil Gorsuch and his business partners for more than $1.8 million -- and that Gorsuch may have failed to properly report it.

This sale happened just 9 days after Gorsuch was sworn in as a Supreme Court Justice, and after that property was on the market for years unable to be sold!

Politico reports, "Gorsuch reported making between $250,001 and $500,000 from the sale on his federal disclosure forms. Gorsuch did not disclose the identity of the purchaser. That box was left blank."

Since the sale, Politico reports, the buyer’s law firm "has been involved in at least 22 cases before or presented to the Court."

SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: The U.S. Senate must launch a full investigation into Thomas and Gorsuch and take steps to pass legislation requiring strong ethics for our Supreme Court.
