The Controversial Disclosures of Justice Clarence Thomas.
Allegations that Justice Clarence Thomas violated federal ethics laws by failing to disclose travel and real estate deals with Republican donor Harlan Crow have been sent to a committee of federal judges responsible for addressing allegations of errors or omissions in the filing of financial disclosure reports. Congressional Democrats had requested that the Judicial Conference of the United States investigate Thomas's failure to disclose the deals and referred the matter to Attorney General Merrick Garland. Thomas's disclosure history is in the spotlight after ProPublica revealed that Crow took him on lavish vacations and also bought a Georgia home where the justice's mother lives, transactions that were not disclosed on the forms.
