A right-leaning organization, The Center for Renewing America, has filed an ethics complaint against U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. According to The Hill, the complaint accuses Jackson of failing to disclose financial information regarding her husband's medical consulting activities and who funded her investiture ceremony at the Library of Congress. It calls for prompt attention and requests the Supreme Court to refer Jackson to Attorney General Merrick Garland for further investigation.
The Center for Renewing America was founded in 2021 by Russ Vought, an ex-official in the Trump administration who served as the director of the Office of Management and Budget. This is not the first time a complaint has been filed against a Supreme Court Justice. Recently, House Democrats petitioned for Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from a case he was serving on to determine if former President Trump would face charges for attempting to overturn the 2020 election.
The petition was signed by Hank Johnson, Jamie Raskin, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, from Georgia, Maryland, Texas, and New York respectively. It stated that Thomas's wife, Ginni Thomas, had backed Trump's false 2020 election claims, which served as grounds to remove him from the case. Her answers during an interview which questioned the Jan. 6 attack led Democrats to take action after they echoed the same allegations as Trump.
The complaint from the conservative organization, The Center for Renewing America, is yet another example of the importance of ensuring the equal application of the law. It remains to be seen what the outcome of the complaint filed against Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will be.
