AdvertisementHerrine said he expects the same groups who brought the cases against Biden's first debt relief plan to challenge this second one. "The administration is certainly still facing a very skeptical Supreme Court," Coglianese said. "Even though it's a different statute, it's still a skeptical Supreme Court.

President Joe Biden delivers remarks on canceling student debt on February 21, 2024 in Culver City, California. Mario Tama | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesA more targeted forgiveness programBiden's 2020 campaign promise to erase student debt was thwarted at the Supreme Court last June. The majority-conservative court ruled that Biden's $400 billion loan cancellation plan was unconstitutional. Biden had tried to forgive the debt of nearly all 40 million federal student loan borrowers, with many people getting up to $20,000 in cancellation. The new plan also calls for borrowers to get up to $20,000 of unpaid interest on their federal student debt forgiven, regardless of their income.

U.S. President Joe Biden speaks about administration plans to forgive federal student loan debt during remarks in the Roosevelt Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., August 24, 2022. Leah Millis | ReutersPresident Joe Biden's new plan to forgive student debt is likely to look much different than his first. His administration has already started that process, and established a "Student Loan Debt Relief Committee" — including Wisdom Cole at the NAACP, Kyra Taylor at the National Consumer Law Center and several student loan borrowers — to hash out the details. Reach of relief could drop to 10% of borrowersNearly 40 million Americans stood to benefit from Biden's original student loan forgiveness plan. Less than 10% of federal student loan borrowers are likely to qualify this round, Kantrowitz said.

After the Supreme Court struck down President Joe Biden's original student loan forgiveness plan, Biden said he would pursue a new path to deliver relief to holders of federal educational debt. "Borrowers should avoid getting their hopes up for forgiveness," said higher education expert Mark Kantrowitz. At the end of June, the high court justices ruled that the executive branch didn't have the authority to widely cancel people's debts. "That would be easier to justify in front of a court that is skeptical of broad authority," said Luke Herrine, assistant professor of law at the University of Alabama. "As the president said, he'll be fighting to get relief to as many borrowers as possible, as quickly as possible," Hasan said.

Supreme Court justices listen to arguments. U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John G. Roberts poses during a group portrait at the Supreme Court in Washington, U.S., October 7, 2022. They pointed out that the lender's revenue was actually expected to rise because of some student loan servicers recently leaving the space and it picking up extra accounts. "I was surprised the court found Missouri had standing," said higher education expert Mark Kantrowitz. That law was passed in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and grants the president broad power to revise student loan programs during national emergencies.

President Joe Biden announces new actions on June 30, 2023 to protect borrowers after the Supreme Court struck down his student loan forgiveness plan. Biden had hoped to move quickly canceling people's student debt, promising people the relief within six weeks of them completing their paperwork. Unlike Biden's first attempt to forgive student debt quickly through an executive order, this time he's turning to the rulemaking process. It's unlikely that Biden's Plan B for student loan forgiveness will be successful, Kantrowitz said. He expects the president's second attempt at forgiving student debt to be met by many of the same lawsuits as the first.

The Pacific Legal Foundation announced Tuesday it was filing suit against student loan relief. "Congress did not authorize the executive branch to unilaterally cancel student debt," Caleb Kruckenberg, an attorney at Pacific Legal Foundation, said in a press release. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has estimated that, according to projections spanning the next 30 years, student loan relief will cost $400 billion. "The claim is baseless for a simple reason: No one will be forced to get debt relief. Because opponents of the debt relief plan are trying anything they can to stop this program that will provide needed relief to working families."
A conservative legal organization sued the Education Department over Biden's debt relief plan. It's the first major lawsuit against the Biden administration's announcement that it would forgive up to $20,000 in student debt for federal borrowers making under $125,000. "The claim is baseless for a simple reason: No one will be forced to get debt relief. Anyone who does not want debt relief can choose to opt out," Abdullah Hassan, White House assistant press secretary, said in a statement to Insider. Because opponents of the debt relief plan are trying anything they can to stop this program that will provide needed relief to working families."
