Washington CNN —A federal appeals court delivered on Friday another blow to President Joe Biden’s student loan repayment plan, siding with Republican-led states that asked it to block further implementation of the plan until their challenge to it is resolved.
Those borrowers have been placed in an interest-free forbearance during which they are not required to make monthly student loan payments.
The high court is already considering a separate request from the administration stemming from another challenge to the plan.
SAVE is one of the Biden-Harris administration’s key student loan policies.
SAVE was launched soon after the Supreme Court knocked down Biden’s signature, one-time student loan forgiveness program last summer.
