John,
Our extremist, far-right Supreme Court is dangerous. It’s also one of the most corrupt institutions across all branches of government.
For years, Supreme Court justices have accepted — and then failed to disclose — massive gifts from parties with interests before the court. This is corruption. But today, thanks to loopholes in the Court’s code of ethics, it’s perfectly legal.
Justice Democrats Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has introduced a bill to change that. The High Court Gift Ban Act would put an end to legalized bribery by creating and enforcing strict ethical standards for our highest court.
Will you sign on to tell Congress to move forward with this critical piece of legislation?
The Supreme Court holds an enormous amount of unchecked power over our lives. Between the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the creation of “presidential immunity” for Donald Trump, and the dozens of other disastrous decisions made by the current bench, it is clear that they aren’t afraid to wield it.
As we have come to learn the full extent of the Court’s bribery problem, members of the Squad have been some of the most outspoken advocates for Supreme Court reform. Now, AOC’s bill will finally put an end to the egregious, plain-as-day corruption that has plagued the Court for years.
Thank you for taking action,
Justice Democrats
