Over the years, the Chief Justice has repeatedly rejected calls for a Supreme Court code of ethics and has staunchly defended the Justices ability to police their own conduct. Judges serving on all other federal courts below the Supreme Court must adhere to a code of conduct that requires them to avoid even the \u201cappearance of impropriety.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cAmericans expect and deserve a fair and impartial Supreme Court and we need transparency in order to identify potential conflicts and to restore public trust in our nation\u2019s highest court,\u201d Common Cause co-president Marilyn Carpinteyro said. \u201cThe U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly proven itself incapable of policing itself without a code of ethics. It is time for Congress to hold hearings and pass legislation to establish a code of ethics for Supreme Court Justices to hold them to the same standards as every other federal judge in the nation. Ensuring transparency, impartiality, and accountability for Supreme Court Justices is not and should not be a partisan issue.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe Senate Judiciary Committee has already announced that it will hold hearings on Supreme Court ethics, and Common Cause called on the House Judiciary Committee to follow suit.\r\n\r\nThe letters to the committees point out Common Cause\u2019s long history of supporting comprehensive efforts to enforce and strengthen judicial ethics because it goes to the heart of upholding the rule of law. The organization has supported legislation such as the Supreme Court Ethics Act; the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency Act; and the Judicial Ethics and Anti-Corruption Act to ensure that the Supreme Court is bound by a judicial code of conduct like all other courts in the United States.\r\n\r\nIn 2011, after Common Cause initially discovered that Justice Thomas\u2019 financial disclosure forms were incomplete, the Associate Justice amended 21 years' worth of returns. Additionally, following a 2011 article by the <em>Th\u1eddi b\u00e1o New York<\/em> detailing Justice Thomas\u2019 close relationship with Harlan Crow, Common Cause wrote to the Judicial Conference of the United States to ask it to examine whether Justice Thomas failed to comply with the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 and whether the Department of Justice should investigate.\r\n\r\nTo read the letter to the House Judiciary Committee, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Common-Cause-Urges-House-Judiciary-Committee-to-Call-Justice-Thomas-to-Testify-at-Hearing-4-11-23.pdf\">nh\u1ea5p v\u00e0o \u0111\u00e2y<\/a>.\r\n\r\nTo read the letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Common-Cause-Urges-Senate-Judiciary-Committee-to-Call-Justice-Thomas-to-Testify-at-Hearing-4-11-23.pdf\">nh\u1ea5p v\u00e0o \u0111\u00e2y<\/a>."}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
