Biden to Cancel $5 Billion in Student Debt Forgiveness Despite Supreme Court Opposition

Loading

On Jan.19, the White House formally announced the cancellation of another $5 billion in student loan debt for almost 74,000 Americans. The decision comes months after the Supreme Court struck down Biden’s largest loan forgiveness plan, which would have theoretically erased the debts of more than 20 million people. Even so, the president has managed to cancel a total of $136 billion in student debt since taking office.
