Justice Thomas defenders are making the case for Supreme Court ethics reform.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, focused on Breyer, saying he had repeatedly traveled abroad while serving as a judge for the Pritzker Prize, a prominent architecture award that was founded by the prominent Chicago-based Democratic family of whom current Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker is a member.
"The hearing was bipartisan confirmation of the need for at least greater transparency from the Supreme Court, if not bipartisan confirmation of the need for ethical standards for the Supreme Court," he said. "It wouldn’t eliminate partisan disagreements about the actions of particular justices, but it would provide a common framework for assessing those actions," he added.
