Senate Democrats demand transparency on gifts to Supreme Court justices.

TL;DR Summary
Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats have asked Harlan Crow, a Republican megadonor, to provide an itemized list of gifts worth more than $415 that he gave to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas or any other justices or their family members. The request comes as Democrats escalate their calls for ethics reforms at the court. The committee held a hearing last week on ethics rules for members of the Supreme Court, following reporting by ProPublica last month that alleged Thomas failed to properly disclose trips and gifts paid for by Crow and also didn't disclose the sale of Thomas' and his relatives' properties to Crow.
