Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin has requested that Chief Justice John Roberts testify before the committee following revelations about Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas accepting gifts
Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin has requested that Chief Justice John Roberts or “another Justice whom you designate” appear before his committee next month for a hearing on Supreme Court ethics rules.
The letter noted that more than a decade ago, members of the committee had written the chief justice “urging the Court to adopt a resolution stating that the Justices of the Court abide by the Judicial Conference’s Code of Conduct for United States Judges – a Code that binds every other judge in the federal judiciary,” Durbin wrote.
