The news outlet ProPublica has alleged that United States Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito failed to disclose a private flight to Alaska, financed by a businessman whose interests have come before the court.
The revelations have renewed an outcry over ethics on the country’s highest court. On Wednesday, Democratic Senator Dick Durbin, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the court was in “an ethical crisis of its own making” .
Durbin added that the Democrat-led panel would take up the question of ethics reforms when it reconvenes after the Independence Day holiday on July 4. “The reputation and credibility of the court are at stake,” he said.
