News Alert: Justice Stephen G. Breyer to retire, allowing Biden to nominate a liberal replacement for the Supreme Court
| Breyer is the court's oldest justice and he has been under unprecedented pressure to retire while Democrats have narrow control of the Senate, which must confirm Supreme Court nominees. His planned departure will afford President Biden the chance to make his mark on the high court by nominating the first African-American female justice and reinforcing the court's liberal minority. |
