Yet another court has stepped in to block Joe Biden’s unconstitutional and possibly illegal college student vote-buying program. It’s amazing that Biden has gotten away with this for as long as he has, considering the fact that even the U.S. Supreme Court told him he couldn’t do it.
Biden knows he needs this for the Bernie wing of his party.
Reuters reports:
US appeals court blocks all of Biden student debt relief planA federal appeals court on Thursday blocked President Joe Biden’s administration from continuing to implement a new student debt relief plan designed to lower monthly payments for millions of Americans.The St. Louis-based 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted a request, opens new tab by seven Republican-led states to put on hold parts of the U.S. Department of Education’s debt relief plan that had not already been blocked by a lower-court judge.That ruling last month by U.S. District Judge John Ross in St. Louis had blocked the department from granting further loan forgiveness under the administration’s Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan but had not blocked all of the plan.That plan provides more generous terms than past income-based repayment plans, lowering monthly payments for eligible borrowers and allowing those whose original principal balances were $12,000 or less to have their debt forgiven after 10 years.State attorneys general led by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey subsequently last week asked the 8th Circuit to block the rest of the SAVE Plan. The court did so through a one-page order granting an administrative stay.

More from the FOX Business Network:
An Education Department spokesperson told FOX Business, “We are assessing the impacts of this ruling and will be in touch directly with borrowers with any impacts that affect them.””Our Administration will continue to aggressively defend the SAVE Plan – which has been helping over 8 million borrowers access lower monthly payments, including 4.5 million borrowers who have had a zero dollar payment each month,” the statement continued. “And, we won’t stop fighting against Republican elected officials’ efforts to raise costs on millions of their own constituents’ student loan payments.”Education Secretary Miguel Cardona released a statement Thursday night saying the ruling could have “devastating consequences for millions of student loan borrowers crushed by unaffordable payments if it remains in effect.”
Biden’s plan is nothing more than a debt transfer.
People who didn’t go to college should not be forced to pay the debts of those who did.
