Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said in a new interview that she would consider supporting an “enforceable” mechanism of the Supreme Court’s code of ethics.
CBS’s Norah O’Donnell asked Jackson in an interview that aired on “CBS News Sunday Morning” about whether she sees a problem with President Biden backing a binding code for the justices that would enforce gift disclosures and refusals. This comes as other justices on the bench have faced scrutiny over a failure to disclose luxury gifts and trips.
“So, you know, a binding code of ethics is pretty standard for judges. And so I guess the question is, ‘Is the Supreme Court any different?’ And I guess I have not seen a persuasive reason as to why the court is different than the other courts,” Jackson replied.
When O’Donnell pressed Jackson further on whether she would support an “enforcement mechanism” for the justices, Jackson indicated that she would.
“I am considering supporting it as a general matter. I’m not gonna get into commenting on particular policy proposals. But from my perspective, I don’t have any problem with an enforceable code,” Jackson said.
