Justice Samuel Alito, 76 and appointed by President George W. Bush in 2006, has publicly stated he intends to serve at least through the Supreme Court’s 2026-2027 term that begins in October. In an August 2026 Wall Street Journal interview, he directly addressed retirement speculation, noting he is “here for another term” while dismissing pressure from some conservatives seeking a younger replacement under the current Republican Senate majority. An erroneous June 2026 NPR report claiming his retirement was quickly retracted after the court confirmed no announcement had occurred. Alito has hired clerks for the upcoming term, and historical patterns show justices with life tenure often time departures around Senate control and presidential alignment. The November 2026 midterms and any subsequent Senate shift remain key variables that could influence future timing.
