Justice Sotomayor, 70, Affirms She Will Not Retire Before Trump Takes Office
Nov 10, 2024, 07:48 PM
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, 70, has no plans to retire before President-elect Donald Trump takes office on January 20, sources close to her confirmed. Despite pressure from some Democrats who hoped she would step down to allow President Joe Biden to appoint her successor and maintain the Court's liberal presence, Sotomayor intends to remain on the bench. Reports from The Wall Street Journal and ABC News indicate that she is resisting calls from some liberals to resign. These developments reflect efforts by the Democratic Party to preserve influence in the Supreme Court ahead of the incoming administration.
