There’s a new path for student debt relief—and it seems a lot less likely to get overturned by the Supreme Court.
, Biden’s initial debt-relief proposal fell under the “major questions” doctrine, which holds that issues of “economic and political significance” must be made with explicit permission from Congress.But the reason these entities are pushing the congressional route is because it will never happen. Congress, of course, is currently controlled by Republicans. They have a small, unruly, but very real majority.
As part of the debt ceiling negotiations, congressional Republicans got Biden to sign on to a formal end to the three-year-long payment pause for federal student loans.So the White House, despite having plenty of vocal support from some progressive representatives like Ro Khanna, will have to go it alone. Biden’s first try had the advantage of being quicker and a lower-effort lift, but this second try looks much more difficult for the Supreme Court to derail.
