The Supreme Court struck down Biden's student-loan forgiveness plan by a 6-3 vote.
The majority said the six GOP-led states had standing to involve student-loan company MOHELA in its lawsuit against the plan.
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in the majority opinion that "the plan's harm to MOHELA is also a harm to Missouri."
At the time, she asked the lawyer representing the states: "Why didn't the state just make MOHELA come then?"
The majority didn't see it that way — and Biden's broad student-debt relief plan is effectively blocked.
