New from ProPublica: "Clarence Thomas had a child in private school. Harlan Crow paid the tuition...If he paid for all four years, the price tag could have exceeded $150,000."

Harlan Crow is the same conservative billionaire who for 20 years lavished the Supreme Court justice with millions of dollars in luxury travel that Thomas failed to report on financial disclosure documents.

Last week, Chief Justice John Roberts REFUSED a request from senators to testify about the future of ethics and the Supreme Court. Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Dick Durbin didn't issue subpoenas and the first (and so far only announced) hearing had no big witnesses. Subpoenas are needed.

SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: This Supreme Court is increasingly facing a legitimacy crisis. Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin must launch a full investigation -- including subpoenas -- into Supreme Court corruption and take steps to pass legislation requiring strong ethics for our Supreme Court.

The ethics, corruption, and undue influence allegations at this Supreme Court are piling up:

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas accepted millions of dollars of luxury travel and accommodations from conservative billionaire Harlan Crow -- and didn’t disclose it. Crow also bought Thomas’s mother's house without disclosing it.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and his business partners sold a multi-million dollar property to a rich lawyer whose firm frequently has cases before the Supreme Court, just 9 days after he was sworn in -- and Gorsuch appears to have failed to properly report it.

Conservative Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts' wife was paid over $10 million in commissions from elite law firms. At least one of those firms argued a case before Chief Justice Roberts after paying his wife hundreds of thousands of dollars. Roberts did not recuse himself -- and voted in favor of that law firm’s client.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was the subject of a long-term influence campaign orchestrated by a right-wing activist and a network of wealthy donors that allegedly resulted in, among other things, one of the donors being told in advance about an upcoming Supreme Court decision.

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, the ethical standards they’re held to go down.

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