President Biden’s Student Debt Relief Plan Temporarily Blocked
Written by Site Hub on October 23, 2022
Friday evening ended with a blocking to frustrate all, a federal appeals court has temporarily blocked President Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan halting any debt from being erased. This ruling comes less than a week after the application portal went live. Nearly 22 million people (more than half of qualifying borrowers) have signed up.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated: “The order does not reverse the trial court’s dismissal of the case, or suggest that the case has merit. It merely prevents debt from being discharged until the court makes a decision.”
