NEW BILL FOR “SUPREME COURT ACCOUNTABILITY” COULD DISSOLVE THE SEPARATION OF POWERS Rep. Schiff, alongside Reps. Stansbury, Raskin, and Omar have introduced the “Judicial Ethics Enforcement Act of 2024.” This legislation aims to establish an Office of the Inspector General within the Judicial branch to oversee Supreme Court Justices, ensuring they adhere to ethical standards and are protected from undue influence. While aimed at enhancing accountability, critics note that such oversight could challenge the separation of powers, potentially allowing executive influence over the judiciary. Source: Office of Rep.
