Biden points to Republican 'hypocrisy' after Supreme Court kills student debt-relief plan -

Mr. Biden also planned to address the nation later Friday about the Supreme Court’s decision, which concluded that the president exceeded his authority with a plan to forgive more than $400 billion in federal student loan debt.

“The hypocrisy of Republican elected officials is stunning,” Mr. Biden said. “They had no problem with billions in pandemic-related loans to businesses – including hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of dollars for their own businesses. And those loans were forgiven. But when it came to providing relief to millions of hard-working Americans, they did everything in their power to stop it.

In its ruling, the court rejected the Biden administration’s argument that the plan was lawful under the Higher Education Relief Opportunities for Students Act, which says the government can offer to relieve student loans when there is a national emergency.
