The Washington Post reports conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo arranged for Clarence Thomas’s wife, Ginni Thomas, to be paid at least $80,000 for consulting work over a decade ago. ​

Washington, May 8 (RHC)-- The Washington Post reports conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo arranged for Clarence Thomas’s wife, Ginni Thomas, to be paid at least $80,000 for consulting work over a decade ago. 

According to reports, Leo asked the Republican pollster at the time, Kellyanne Conway, to bill the payments to a nonprofit group Leo advises, and specified that Ginni Thomas’s name should be left off any paperwork. 

That same year, in 2012, the nonprofit filed a brief to the Supreme Court in the landmark case Shelby County v. Holder, in which Thomas cast the deciding vote in a 5-4 ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
