A “critical and constitutionally appropriate step,” team. That’s what an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times calls Senator Whitehouse’s Supreme Court ethics reform bill, following ProPublica’s investigative reports exposing Justice Thomas’ extravagant billionaire-sponsored travel spanning three decades.

Because there is no enforceable code of ethics at the Court, the justices can be showered with free vacations sponsored by creepy right-wing billionaires, and there's currently no way to ensure these overtures get disclosed to the American people.

Senator Whitehouse wrote the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency (SCERT) Act to impose real ethics reform at SCOTUS. Without it, the American people can't know for sure who might be cozying up to the justices and what decisions could be made in their favor. Sheldon won’t rest until the SCERT Act becomes law. Momentum is on our side.

Can you help keep up this momentum and donate what you can today before our end-of-month deadline to support Sheldon’s re-election campaign so he can return to the Senate and keep fighting to clean up this mess at SCOTUS? [link removed]

As the writers of the Los Angeles Times piece said, "Making the Supreme Court accountable to ethical rules is the road to restoring its credibility."

Thank you,

Team Whitehouse
