A liberal group is pushing Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton, to retire so that another Democratic president can appoint his replacement while having control of the U.S. Senate.

The group, Demand Justice, has been driving a truck-mounted electronic billboard around Capitol Hill and using social media to deliver the message to Breyer, 82.
