Supreme Court Code of Conduct Act

S 1290, the Supreme Court Code of Conduct Act, requires the U.S. Supreme Court to create and publish a formal code of conduct for the Chief Justice and all justices within one year of the bill becoming law. The code must address conduct prejudicial to justice or violating federal law, and the Court must designate a person to handle public complaints about potential violations. This individual will publish anonymized complaint summaries and actions taken on the Court's website, while the Court's Marshal may use federal investigators to probe serious allegations. The bill directly affects Supreme Court justices and the Court's internal processes, establishing new transparency and accountability mechanisms for their conduct.
