ProPublica reported in April 2023 that Justice Thomas has accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gifts and financial benefits from billionaire Harlan Crow and other right-wing benefactors with business before the Supreme Court. Several additional instances of undisclosed gifts have come to light since then. Justice Alito has also been found to have taken undisclosed gifts from conservative backers. Further, Justice Alito displayed insurrectionist flags aligned with the Stop the Steal movement and other far-right groups outside two of his homes. Both Thomas and Alito refused to recuse themselves from cases related to the January 6th insurrection and other efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, despite clear bias. The Framers of our Constitution called on Congress specifically to hold judicial officers, including Supreme Court justices, accountable for high crimes and misdemeanors that compromise the integrity of the Court. Given the compelling evidence against Justice Thomas and Justice Alito for repeated transgressions fitting this description, it is imperative that the Judiciary Committee promptly begin impeachment proceedings against them. Tell Your Representative: Begin impeachment proceedings against Justice Thomas and Justice Alito. In solidarity, John Bonifaz
