A 93-page Senate report indicates Justice Clarence Thomas had undisclosed luxury travels sponsored by billionaire Harlan Crow, raising concerns over ethics in the Supreme Court.
Justice Thomas's assertion that trips with billionaire Harlan Crow didn't need disclosure underscores a broader issue of accountability, especially with public confidence in the Supreme Court declining.
Senator Dick Durbin emphasized that while a code of ethics exists for the Supreme Court, compliance should not hinge on individual justices, reflecting a need for enforceable standards.
Republicans criticized the investigation as an attack on the court’s conservative majority, and have not participated in endorsing the final report highlighting ethics violations.
