Left-wing voices push for Supreme Court shake-up before 2024 election

Progressive groups want Supreme Court Justice to step down while Democrats hold presidency. Their push comes from past experience when similar situation led to unexpected court position change

Earlier in 24‚ progressive voices made a direct-push for change in Americas highest court. They asked Justice Sonia Sotomayor to think about stepping down while President Joe Biden still holds office; ensuring a democratic pick for her spot

The timing isnt random: Sotomayor whoʼs now in her 70s (and manages type-1 diabetes) represents a key liberal voice on the bench. Left-wing groups dont want to repeat past mis-steps — they remember what happened with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg who chose to stay during Obamas time in office

The memory of RBGs passing while Trump was president still affects many democrats thinking. When she died about 4 years ago it led to a big shift in the courts make-up: something that progressive groups are trying real hard to avoid this time around
