Q: does Admin think Court decision legitimate? A: we disagree with it, we agree with the dissent
#shorts On 6/30/2023, a reporter asked, “the other day, the President said that this is not a “normal” Court. While the administration disagrees with this decision, does the administration think that it is legitimate?
MR. RAMAMURTI: so on your first question, you know, we — we accept the Court’s ruling. Of course, we disagree with it. You know, we had a chance to review the dissent written by Justice Kagan. We largely agree with the points that were made in the dissent.
On 6/30/2023, the Supreme Court put the final nail in the coffin and invalidated Biden’s student loan bailout program. Joe Biden unilaterally announced a massive forgiveness of student loans last August to buy the Gen Z-Millennial vote in the 2022 midterms. Biden canceled over $400 billion in student loans which turns out to be up to $10,000 in student debt for borrowers who earn $125,000 a year or less and up to $20,000 for recipients of Pell Grants. Six Republican state attorneys general sued Joe Biden and argued the student loan bailout violates the separation of powers. Separately, two borrowers who did not qualify for Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan (Department of Education v Brown) sued to stop the program. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Biden v Nebraska that Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness was unlawful. The 8th US Circuit Court of Appeals in November extended a block on Joe Biden’s student loan bailout plan. The DOJ then asked the Supreme Court to lift the 8th Circuit Court’s block, which they refused to do. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Joe Biden overstepped his authority.
