[ [link removed]- ]Sign the petition: Subpoena right-wing billionaires Leonard Leo and
Harlan Crow NOW!

Dear MoveOn member,

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to subpoena Leonard Leo
and Harlan Crow as part of an ongoing ethics probe into Supreme Court
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito … but then never issued the
subpoenas.^1 It's been over two months. What's the hold up?

Around the initial vote, Republicans like Lindsey Graham and Josh Hawley
promised messy, vendetta-filled retaliation if Democrats voted to subpoena
their conservative allies.^2

Leo is the chief architect of the right-wing Supreme Court, and Harlan
Crow is a billionaire and close friend of Clarence Thomas. Democrats must
continue their SCOTUS ethics probe and issue the subpoenas for Leo and
Crow.

[ [link removed]- ]Will you sign the petition to demand that subpoenas be issued for
Leonard Leo and Harlan Crow to investigate the corruption on the Supreme
Court NOW?

Leo and Crow's shady involvement with SCOTUS and certain conservative
justices has been heavily reported on and must be officially investigated.
Leonard Leo and Harlan Crow must be subpoenaed.

A recent ProPublica exposé revealed just how central Leo is to the
right-wing's domination of United States courts. From his post atop the
conservative legal think tank The Federalist Society, Leo guided Supreme
Court appointments under Bush Jr. and Trump, organized luxury trips for
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, oversaw well over $1.6 billion
in funding for right-wing dark-money groups, and much more.^3

Then there's Crow. Over more than two decades, Supreme Court Justice
Clarence Thomas reportedly accepted luxury trips virtually every year from
mega-donor and billionaire Dallas businessman, Harlan Crow without
disclosing them.^4

[ [link removed]- ]Enough. We can't let the Republicans like Lindsey Graham and Josh
Hawley block a much-needed investigation into this corruption. Add your
name to the petition: Issue subpoenas for Leonard Leo and Harlan Crow!

Between the two of them, Leo's injection of huge sums into our legal
system has led directly to our current right-wing court that's gutted our
reproductive rights, decimated environmental protections, and more. And
Crow's involvement with Thomas raises extreme ethical concerns.

Senate Democrats must continue their investigation into Supreme Court
corruption and hold Leo and Crow accountable.
