The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land. They hand down decisions that affect the entire country for generations. They should be held to the highest level of scrutiny and the highest ethical standard. It is a disgrace that Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito accept gifts and vacations from billionaire benefactors, often without disclosing them to the American people.
The Senate has the power to rein in this corruption in this co-equal branch of government. Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin should hold full hearings on Clarence Thomas’ and Samuel Alito’s misconduct as soon as possible. And Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer should bring a bill to implement a Supreme Court code of ethics to the Senate floor as soon as possible.
Sign our petition to Sen. Durbin & Sen. Schumer to let them know that we're watching their leadership on this very important issue.
