RafaThe composition of the US Supreme Court changed dramatically during the 1930s, due to numerous retirements and President Roosevelt's determination to replace conservative justices with progressive justices. By 1941, all but one of the justices who had been on the Court in 1930 were gone, shifting the Supreme Court's general ideology from the right to left.
