TELL THE U.S. HOUSE: Justices Clarence Thomas and Sameul Alito are caught up in a web of right-wing extremism and corruption. And the Supreme Court could decide critical 2024 election cases. Sign the petition: Impeach Alito and Thomas!

Hi,

Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito ruled on January 6 cases and the Trump “absolute immunity” case despite their connections to efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Imagine if the Supreme Court has a chance to rule on the 2024 election?

In the infamous Bush v. Gore case in 2000, the Supreme Court stopped the Florida recount and decided the winner of the presidential election. No court should decide an election, especially not a court with justices steeped in ethics violations, corruption, and right-wing extremism.

It’s time for Congress to act and remove Alito and Thomas from the Supreme Court!

Sign the petition: Impeach Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito! It’s time to hold right-wing justices on the Supreme Court accountable for corruption and ethics violations.

Thomas’s wife, Ginni Thomas, was involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.1 Alito’s connections to January 6 include a Stop the Steal style flag flying over his house2 and teaching a law seminar with a fringe election denier just days after the insurrection.3

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez filed articles of impeachment against Thomas and Alito saying, “Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s pattern of refusal to recuse from consequential matters before the court in which they hold widely documented financial and personal entanglements constitutes a grave threat to American rule of law, the integrity of our democracy, and one of the clearest cases for which the tool of impeachment was designed.”4

It’s time for Congress to finally do something about the Supreme Court that is issuing dangerous, undemocratic decisions and ruining public confidence in the nation’s highest court.

Sign the petition: Urge your U.S. Representative to impeach Thomas and Alito!

Thanks for taking action,
