A committee chaired by Illinois Senior Senator Dick Durban plans to tackle the code of ethics in the nation's highest court.

This week, the Senate Judiciary Committee announced plans to vote to authorize subpoenas to multiple Republican megadonors. The goal of the subpoenas is to squash their efforts to influence Supreme Court Justices. Democratic-Whip Dick Durbin says he tried to address the code of ethics 11-years ago by sending a letter to Chief Justice Roberts.

According to Durbin, Supreme Court Justices receive lavish, undisclosed gifts from billionaire megadonors, and that needs to change.
