"When Justice Stephen Breyer departs from the bench, the Supreme Court and the Country will lose a leader of honor and integrity, a defender of liberty, justice and the Constitution, and a guardian of our fundamental rights.

Justice Breyer has championed liberty not merely as freedom from oppression, but as freedom to participate in our democracy -- paving the way for great progress in our nation. Justice Breyer has helped ensure that our democracy does, as our Founders intended, work For The People.

For his legal brilliance, his unwavering integrity and his firm devotion to safeguarding our democracy, Justice Breyer will leave a remarkable legacy. We thank the Breyer family for sharing him with the Country.

Congress and the Country look forward to President Biden's historic nomination, who will carry on Justice Breyer's mission and who will keep faith with the Supreme Court's role as a defender of individual rights."
