Senators propose ethics code for Supreme Court amid controversies.

Senators Angus King and Lisa Murkowski introduced a bipartisan bill aimed at forcing the Supreme Court to establish an ethics code after recent revelations that some justices had not disclosed gifts, travel, and property deals. The legislation would also require the court to appoint an official to examine potential conflicts and public complaints. The bill is the latest effort by lawmakers to pressure the court to increase transparency and better police itself.
