The amended disclosures reveal that Thomas was paid nearly $700,000 between 2003 and 2007 by the Heritage Foundation.
Since the amendments, the only income to Ginni Thomas that has been reported is from her firm, Liberty Consulting.
By reporting payments from a single firm, Justice Thomas can avoid reporting his wife’s clients and the exact amounts paid since personal financial disclosure forms only require spouses to report the exact amounts of honoraria paid. Because Supreme Court justices are only required to list their spouse’s employer and exact amounts of any honoraria paid directly to the spouse — not their spouse’s clients or the amount of compensation the spouse received — the spouse of a Supreme Court justice can simply create a firm to route payments through in order to hide who is paying them and the amount.
Justice Thomas’ new financial disclosure covering 2022 also reveals that Ginni Thomas continued to draw a salary through her for-profit consulting firm but because of the disclosure loophole, the amount of money she received and the sources remain hidden. Ginni Thomas has a long public history of involvement with a variety of conservative activists and organizations, some of which have filed amicus briefs or had interest in cases before the Supreme Court.
