Issue Position: Absolute ban on all gifts to judges

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2015
Issues: Judicial Branch

The opportunity to serve as a judge is a solemn responsibility and a public trust. It should not include an opportunity to reap profit from others through the receipt of gifts. The exchange of favors has no place in the judicial process. Gifts to judges, be they golf junkets or trinkets, should be banned completely.
