[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress



For two decades, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas failed to disclose
millions of dollars in gifts from billionaire GOP megadonors. According to
new reporting from ProPublica that broke this week, Thomas accepted 26
private jet flights and 38 destination vacations — and disclosed exactly
zero of them.

No one is above the law. So yesterday, Alexandria led a letter to the
Department of Justice to urge an official investigation into Thomas. She
was joined by Ranking Members Jamie Raskin and Jerry Nadler, and Judiciary
Members Ted Lieu and Hank Johnson.

This level of corruption is shocking by any standard of a functioning
democracy. A failure to hold Justice Thomas accountable sends a loud,
dangerous signal to the full court that his actions are fair game.

According to legal experts, Thomas appears to have violated the Ethics in
Government Act of 1978 by failing to disclose years worth of private jet
flights, luxury yacht vacations, and VIP sports tickets afforded to him by
a circle of ultrawealthy, conservative executives.

Reporting has revealed that Thomas met many of these wealthy friends after
his appointment to the Court, through an exclusive nonprofit to which
Thomas gives annual access to the Supreme Court Building for a fundraiser
that costs $1,500 or more per person to attend.

This is a tipping point, and inaction is a decision to erode and further
delegitimize the Supreme Court. As Alexandria said, “We must go where the
facts take us.”
