Jack, scandal after scandal continues to come to light around the Supreme Court's conservative majority. And behind these scandals are justices secretly concealing their wrongdoings.

Yet, they continue to rule over cases despite clear conflicts of interest. Corruption!

Sign the petition to Congress: Stop the corruption! The Supreme Court must be made to follow basic ethics standards.

SIGN THE PETITION

Ethics scandals have now come out around EVERY SINGLE ONE of the conservative justices sitting on the Court. They then claim that as an independent branch of government they can do whatever they want.

They cannot! Corrupt actions by sitting justices only serve to further erode the court’s integrity and the public’s trust in that court. Justices must be held to account for flouting the ethical rules that apply to every other judge in the country. We must restore public trust, transparency, and accountability in the U.S. Supreme Court.

Congress needs to take action and finally hold the Supreme Court accountable.

Sign the petition to Congress: Pass the Supreme Court Ethics Act.

Thanks for all you do,

P.S. Below is an email we sent out earlier calling on the Congress to pass the Supreme Court Ethics Act:


Jack, another day, another ethics scandal involving right-wing groups with interests before the Supreme Court.

Sign if you agree: The nation's highest court should be held to the highest ethical standards.

A new ProPublica report revealed that Justice Samuel Alito took a $100,000 private jet trip to Alaska on billionaire donor Paul Singer’s dime. Alito's failure to include the trip on his annual financial disclosures may have violated a federal law requiring justices to disclose most gifts. Singer repeatedly had interests before the Court in the years following the trip. Alito never recused himself.

Sen. Dick Durbin, chair of the Judiciary Committee, announced that his committee will take up legislation to impose ethics reform on the Supreme Court. “The Supreme Court is in an ethical crisis of its own making due to the acceptance of lavish gifts from parties with business before the Court that several Justices have not disclosed,” Durbin tweeted.

Conservative justices—and their right-wing billionaire buddies—undermine the Court's legitimacy with their repeated ethical lapses, and disregard for precedent, the rule of law, and the will of the American people. It's time for Congress to finally enact a code of ethics for the Supreme Court.

Sign the petition to Congress: Stop the corruption! The Supreme Court must be made to follow basic ethics standards.
