A Supreme Court"ethics" watchdog taking aim at justices over alleged ethics violations scrubbed its website of blog posts tied to its lobbying that went undisclosed on tax forms, records show.
Fix the Court filed amended 2022 tax forms affirming"yes" to the lobbying question, documents reveal. The group also filed a Schedule C showing it spent $6,400 trying"to influence foreign, national, state, or local legislation" through"publications, or published or broadcast statements" and $6,300 on"direct contact with legislators, their staffs, government officials, or a legislative body.
Fix the Court houses an"action center" page on its website, which as of this writing has no content. However, the center used to display a variety of posts, including one titled,"The Judiciary Must Do More to Prevent Harassment in the Courthouse," which requested people to"ask your senators and representatives to protect the employees of the Judiciary!"
"When Fix the Court was part of New Venture Fund, I never had to fill out these forms," Roth also told Lat."This is really my first time doing it, and at first, I didn’t get help, which, again, was the wrong idea. I think if you’re a justice, and you’ve been a justice for five years, 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, you don’t have an excuse because you have done this every year, No. 1.
