A Code of Conduct is long overdue, and I am grateful that the Supreme Court has finally taken steps towards a uniform code of conduct. However, this code does not include any meaningful enforcement mechanism and leaves the decision of recusal entirely up to the discretion of individual justices. It simply does not go far enough, and further action is needed to restore faith in our nation\u2019s highest court.\u201d\n\nCongresswoman Ross\u2019 legislation, the Courthouse Ethics and Transparency Act, was signed into law last year. This legislation requires the online publication of financial disclosure reports for federal judges and mandates that federal judges submit periodic transaction reports for certain securities transactions.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:01:09Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://ross.house.gov/2023/11/congresswoman-ross-statement-on-supreme-court-code-of-conduct"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0598329827189445, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
