45 House Democrats Request Justice Alito Recuse Himself From Jan. 6 Cases
Reps. Hank Johnson, Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Ayanna Pressley, Eric Swalwell, and others say his wife’s flying U.S. flag upside down was ethics violation.
A group of 45 House Democrats sent Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito a letter on May 21 requesting that he recuse himself from high-profile cases related to the events of Jan. 6, 2021.
Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) spearheaded the letter in response to news that an inverted American flag flew outside of Justice Alito’s Virginia home on Jan. 17.
