Demand Action on Justice Alito's $2.9M Fossil Fuel Conflict of Interest

Take action to address the Supreme Court's glaring ethics crisis. Justice Samuel Alito reportedly received as much as $2.9 million from fossil fuel interests while serving on the Court — the same Court that rules on cases directly affecting those industries. That is not a gray area. That is a conflict of interest, and it demands a real response. Congress has the authority to establish binding ethics rules for Supreme Court justices. Right now, there are none. Every other federal judge operates under a code of conduct — there is no legitimate reason the highest court in the land should be exempt. I expect you to push for enforceable Supreme Court ethics legislation that includes mandatory recusal standards and financial disclosure requirements with real teeth.
