"Retired Judge Urges Ethics Reform for Supreme Court Amid Criticism"

Retired conservative judge J. Michael Luttig has called for new ethics rules for Supreme Court justices, joining a chorus of legal experts from across the political spectrum. The Senate Judiciary Committee is holding a hearing on Supreme Court ethics, and lawmakers are expected to hear from five experts. Calls for the Supreme Court justices to be subject to an ethics code have grown in recent weeks after revelations about justices’ gifts, luxury travel, and property deals highlighted how few reporting requirements are in place and how the justices are often left to police themselves.
