Barrett denies emergency bid to block Biden's student debt forgiveness plan
Justice Amy Coney Barrett on Thursday denied an emergency bid by a group of Wisconsin taxpayers to block the Biden administration’s student loan forgiveness program.
Barrett, who handles emergency matters arising from Wisconsin, appeared to act alone in denying the request, rather than refer the matter to the full court. A spokesperson for the Supreme Court did not immediately respond when asked for clarification.
The brief, one-line order comes after the Brown County Taxpayers Association on Wednesday urged the court to rule that the president’s nationwide debt cancellation plan illegally encroaches on Congress’s exclusive spending power.
