Without dark money, we’ll finally be able to see real conflicts of interest. Here’s where judicial ethics reform comes in, whether the justices do it themselves (fat chance) or Congress takes action via my Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, & Transparency Act. — PolitiTweet.org

How to fix what’s wrong at SCOTUS? The capture of the Court was enabled by dark money – it funds judicial lobbying groups, moves cases through lower courts, & funds ads for the chosen justices. We can start with transparency: pass my DISCLOSE Act & expose that influence. — PolitiTweet.org

My Ethics Act would require judges to be more transparent about conflicts of interest and who pays for travel/gifts. It also requires shadowy groups who lobby the Court via amicus briefs to disclose their actual funders, and imposes real recusal standards that are way overdue. — PolitiTweet.org
