Student Loan Cancellation Lawsuit

The group says the decision to cancel the debt is illegal because it wasn’t approved by Congress.

(Indianapolis, IN)  —  One legal group is suing the Department of Education over the Biden administration’s student loan cancellation policy.  The Pacific Legal Foundation filed the suit in the U.S. District Court in southern Indiana.  The group says the decision to cancel the debt is illegal because it wasn’t approved by Congress.  An attorney for the group claimed in a statement it’s not legal to create such an expensive program “by press release” without following what he called the basic “procedure for new regulations.”
