Supreme Court Ethics Reform Rally In Princeton On Oct. 20

PRINCETON, NJ – Several activists and local leaders will be coming together in Princeton On Oct. 20, to oppose decision made by the Supreme Court on health care, gun safety laws and environmental protections.

The “Supreme Injustice Rally” is being hosted by Indivisible Cranbury, the Coalition for Peace Action, Princeton Community Democratic Organization (PCDO) and Indivisible Highland Park.

The rally is aimed to urge attendees to take action and demand Supreme Court justices “are not bought and paid for by the highest bidder, and must follow an enforceable code of ethics.”

“Some of our Supreme Court justices have been bribed by oligarchs to issue decisions removing power from the people and awarding it to corporations who place profit over public health and safety. There has been a right-wing extremist, corrupt takeover of the Court, and we demand a return to a code of ethics that is followed by every other judge in this country,” a release from the event says.

Speakers at the rally include Sen. Andrew Zwicker; Rev. Bob Moore of Coalition for Peace Action and Ceasefire NJ; Charlie Kratovil of Empower NJ; Tatiana Castrillon of Planned Parenthood Action Fund of NJ and Sara Wasserman from The Bayard Rustin Center for Social Justice.

The rally will take place at 2 p.m., at Hinds Plaza, adjacent to the Princeton Public Library, 65 Witherspoon Street.
