Supreme Court Nukes Biden’s Unlawful Student Loan Bailout — Again
SUMMARY
The U.S. Supreme Court has once again rejected President Joe Biden’s attempt to enforce a student loan bailout plan. In a brief order, the court denied the Biden-Harris administration’s request to lift a lower court injunction that blocks the program. The administration's plan had previously been blocked by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals following a challenge by Republican-led states. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey praised the decision, calling it a victory for working Americans. This marks another defeat for the Biden-Harris administration on this issue, following a previous 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that found an earlier version of the plan unconstitutional. The court’s latest decision ensures the continued prohibition of the program’s enforcement.
