Answer

Kennedy retired from the Supreme Court in 2018, after serving for 30 years. He was appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 and was considered a swing vote on many important cases. Kennedy's retirement gave President Donald Trump the opportunity to appoint a more conservative justice, Neil Gorsuch, who has shifted the balance of the court to the right.
