Supreme Court justices just got the green light to continue being wined and dined by billionaires, special interests, and big corporations \u2013 and now they don\u2019t even have to disclose most of it to the public!\u202f<\/strong>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\n

That\u2019s right: despite public outcry over\u202fJustice Clarence Thomas accepting luxury trips from conservative billionaire Harlan Crow, the Judicial Conference \u2013 which oversees federal courts\u202f\u2013\u202fjust made it easier <\/em>for wealthy donors to secretly influence<\/strong> our highest court.\u202f[1]\r\n <\/p>\r\n

These new loosened rules would likely allow Justice Thomas to get away with hiding several of his previous stays at Harlan Crow\u2019s properties. [1]
<\/p>

We deserve better than this. With the stroke of a pen, the Supreme Court makes far-reaching decisions<\/strong> on reproductive rights, environmental protections, the freedom to vote, and so much more \u2013 affecting millions of people every day.\u202f\r\n <\/p>\r\n

We deserve the full <\/em>truth about the lavish gifts megadonors provide justices with \u2013 and what, if anything, they expect to get in return. \r\n <\/p>\r\n

With your help, we can uncover their attempts to curry favor with justices by passing a strong Supreme Court Code of Conduct to hold justices to the same high ethical standards as every other federal judge.\r\n <\/p>\r\n

Add your name to urge Congress to finally pass a REAL, enforceable Supreme Court Code of Conduct.\u202f<\/strong>
