Opinion: I'm defending taxpayers at Supreme Court after paying for my education in blood, sweat, and tears

Sen. Tom Cotton calls out the spiraling border crisis and the Democrats' 'irresponsible' domestic spending."Pay what you owe." It’s a simple, but important, directive. Whether it was my parents insisting I paid back the five dollars I borrowed from my brother, or my drill sergeant ensuring I completed the requisite number of pushups for an unkempt bunk, the importance of paying one’s debts was drilled into me from an early age.

But now, President Joe Biden’s unconstitutional decision to unilaterally"cancel" students’ debt puts the underpinning of our commercial system at serious risk. That’s why as Missouri’s Attorney General, I willThere’s no such thing as"canceling a debt." The debt’s weight is just shifted. In this case, it’s thrust on the backs of the American taxpayers, who had no say in taking on that debt. But that won’t stop Joe Biden and his Administration.

The Constitution clearly states that Congress has the power of the purse. The executive branch cannot unilaterally wipe away hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt – debts American taxpayers have funded with the expectation the debts would be repaid – without express approval by Congress. Since Congress has not passed any law wiping student loan debt off the books, Biden’s action is illegal on its face.

in blood, sweat, and tears. I come from humble beginnings, and we didn’t have tens of thousands of dollars to spend on a college education. I had to find a way to pursue my dreams of earning a college degree without saddling myself with debt I may not be able to repay. After graduation from the University of Missouri-Columbia, I was commissioned as an Officer in the United States Army and deployed twice to support Operation Iraqi Freedom. When I returned from deployment In 2009, I used the GI bill to enroll at the University of Missouri School of Law. I could have never imagined that one day I would come before the United States Supreme Court to defend the rights of my fellow Missourians.

Supreme Court case against Biden student debt relief could hinge on MissouriA group of six GOP-led states challenging the Biden administration's student debt relief plan at the Supreme Court first must answer how, exactly, they are harmed. True story! They have no standing to attack loan forgiveness. Republican Attorney Generals - “who saw it as a costly bailout to college students at the expense of other American taxpayers.” It’s ok to subsidize oil and gas, farmers, and other industries.
