LIVE White House events and press briefings with President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and other administration officials.
If it’s not free money for big business politicians don’t care.
Yeah, no one cares which is why the leader of one political party is holding a press conference to outline what they plan to counter this partisan judicial ruling.
I should say 50% do not care.
Which 50%?
The ones that don’t care about paying anyone’s student loans.
I dunno. Gestures like these just feel like red meat for the american Left.
Can someone ELI5 why the Supreme Court rejected the relief? I know America is a false democracy controlled by the NRA, I just want to know the excuse the Supreme Court gave for their ruling.
There were two cases they decided on today about student loan debt. The first was from folks who would only getting 10k instead of 20. Their argument boiled down to they got more so it’s unfair. The court unanimously ruled that they don’t even have standing to sue so they threw it out. Which is a good thing because it maintains that you have to be experiencing something harmful in order to sue.
The second decision was a state, I forget which one, suing the federal government. Essentially what was ruled is that eliminating student loan debt is all fine and dandy you just can’t do it through an executive order citing the Heroes Act. The HA is a 9/11 era contingency for the president to make unilateral decisions quickly in times of crisis/war on certain things. The court said that what Biden was trying to do would impact economies too much and the decision is outside of the scope of what the HA is for. tl;dr if you want to do this get it through Congress. The decision was 6/3 along party lines. I don’t agree with this decision btw it’s just my understanding of the rationale.
I see, so basically Biden was acting beyond the scope of the mechanism he was using to pass the student debt relief.
