Legal experts say it’s hard to predict how the Supreme Court will rule, given the many complicated questions at play. The court could eventually rule on the legal merits of the student loan forgiveness program. However, right now, the court is only deciding whether to allow the Eighth Circuit’s injunction blocking the program to continue.
“At least so far, the Supreme Court has shown an unwillingness to get involved in lower court proceedings around these preliminary injunction type of issues,” says Thomas Bennett, an associate professor of law at the University of Missouri, who studies federal courts and constitutional law. But the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that Missouri, one of the six states, likely has legal standing, saying that the Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority , a student loan servicer, will lose revenue because of debt cancellation and “may well be an arm of the State of Missouri.” While the court did not yet rule on the legal arguments in the case, it granted a preliminary injunction, noting that the outcome of the case will affect the finances of millions of Americans.
In the 2007 case, Chief Justice John Roberts dissented—along with conservative justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito—arguing that Massachusetts should not have had standing to sue because the state had not suffered a concrete injury. “The constitutional role of the courts, however, is to decide concrete cases—not to serve as a convenient forum for policy debates,” Roberts wrote in his dissent.
Nonetheless, the Biden Administration criticized the Eighth Circuit’s reasoning for the injunction and argued that the plaintiffs lack standing to sue. “That analysis does not suffice to support any injunction—much less a universal injunction prohibiting the government from implementing a critically important policy with direct and tangible effects on millions of Americans,” Prelogar said in the filing.

So strange because they didn't appeal the Public Servant student debt relief that paid out millions over the last year.
The birth of socialist America. Chinese- Tiktok worked.
So the president made this bill himself and passed it with executive authority. So no wonder Federal judges are knocking it down and stopping it. It was a play for voters in the first place and a shameful one at that.
Haha let the losers go get jobs and pay their loans off. Nothing but a lazy shit bag generation these days.
Or these deadbeats could just pay what they owe instead of looking to get out of it.
And what about the external debt?
