Supreme Court adopts modified ethics code after pressure from Hill Dems
Fox News
The Supreme Court on Monday issued a new "Code of Conduct" following months of heightened scrutiny from Democrats pushing for new ethics laws for the high court.
"For the most part these rules and principles are not new: The Court has long had the equivalent of common law ethics rules, that is, a body of rules derived from a variety of sources, including statutory provisions, the code that applies to other members of the federal judiciary, ethics advisory opinions issued by the Judicial Conference Committee on Codes of Conduct, and historic practice," the statement reads.
