US Supreme Court's Roberts hears key Democrat's call for enforceable ethics code; Reuters, September 17, 2024

Nate Raymond, Reuters;  US Supreme Court's Roberts hears key Democrat's call for enforceable ethics code

"The Democratic chair of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday argued during a closed-door federal judiciary meeting attended by Chief U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Roberts that the high court's recently-adopted ethical code of conduct falls short and needs a means of enforcement, a person familiar with the matter said.

Democratic Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois spoke as one of several lawmakers invited to attend the semi-annual meeting of the U.S. Judicial Conference, the federal judiciary's top policymaking body, which Roberts heads."
