The article emphasizes the urgent need for the Judiciary Accountability Act (JAA) to protect judiciary employees from discrimination and misconduct. Legislative changes are essential due to the federal judiciary's severe lack of accountability and oversight, which has led to a toxic work environment marked by bullying and harassment. Investigative reports reveal pervasive issues within this unregulated sector, where affected employees often find no recourse for their complaints. Despite these findings, the judiciary appears indifferent to the problem, undermining the integrity of its operations.
The judiciary is uniquely insulated from scrutiny, and uniquely unaccountable to the public... legislation that would extend federal anti-discrimination protections to more than 30,000 exempt federal judiciary employees.
Holding abusive judges accountable for misconduct, and extending workplace anti-discrimination protections... are particularly urgent.
The federal judiciary - lacking in transparency, accountability, enforceable ethical restrictions... is the most dangerous white-collar workplace in America.
The federal judiciary is willfully ignorant of the scope of the problem, pointing to suspiciously low misconduct complaint numbers as evidence that judges don’t face issues.
