Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor has retired. From Senator Thune:
Senator John Thune (R-SD) made the following statement today regarding the Justice Sandra Day O’Connor’s retirement:
“Sandra Day O’Connor was not only a pioneer as the first woman on the Supreme Court, but she was also a fair and thoughtful judge who helped America grapple with some of the most complex and divisive constitutional issues in our nation’s history. As a Supreme Court justice, O’Connor never forgot that the courts should interpret laws and not legislate. We thank Justice O’Connor for her service to America and her commitment to justice. Whomever the President nominates will have big shoes to fill. I expect the Senate to give the President’s nominee a rigorous and fair hearing followed by an up-or-down confirmation vote.”
