Supreme Court nominee John Roberts acknowledged to the Senate Judiciary Committee this week that he should have disclosed that he worked as a lobbyist for the cosmetics industry in 2001. The work, done on behalf of the Cosmetics, Toiletries and Fragrances Association, involved an effort to stave off a regulatory change involving sunscreen. Roberts, a lawyer in private practice at the time, suggested that he did not think of revealing the information because the nature of the work did not seem political.

Supreme Court nominee John Roberts has acknowledged he should have disclosed to a Senate committee that he worked as a lobbyist for the cosmetics industry in 2001.
In a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee late Wednesday, Roberts wrote that he neglected to reveal that work in response to the panel’s questionnaire asking about his lobbying activities. Confirmation hearings begin Sept. 6.
