HIGH COURT NOMINEE, SPOUSE WORTH $6 MILLION

Supreme Court nominee Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her husband reported net worth of $6.1 million, including a Watergate apartment worth $1.3 million, in documents released Tuesday by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

She also gave indications of some of her judicial views in the documents, saying lawmakers should make hard decisions to pass laws that "equip judges with clearer policy directions."

Ginsburg and her husband, Martin, a tax attorney who teaches law at Georgetown University, listed $2.7 million in securities and investments and $2.1 million in retirement funds. Included was the $550,000 value of Martin Ginsburg's law practice.

The disclosure statement excluded personal property and primary residences. - Associated Press
