Biden <\/em>suspending the loan-forgiveness plan dealt a humiliating blow to the president, who just hours earlier <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2022\/10\/21\/remarks-by-president-biden-on-student-loan-forgiveness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bragged<\/a> that the courts had declared, \u201cWe\u2019re on Biden\u2019s side.\u201d But even before the ruling, no court had sided with the president; rather, the earlier cases were all tossed because the Biden administration crafted the program to prevent anyone from obtaining \u201cstanding\u201d to challenge the unilateral executive action.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStanding,\u201d or the legal right to sue because of a cognizable injury, remains at issue in <em>Nebraska v. Biden<\/em>, with the Eighth Circuit\u2019s decision on Friday merely temporarily pausing Biden\u2019s plans to wipe out over $400 million in student debt. This week, the federal appellate court will decide whether to enjoin the loan-forgiveness program during the appeal. The Eighth Circuit is not the only court to watch this week, however, as two other challenges to the Biden administration\u2019s student-debt bailout program are teed up for decision and a third may be soon \u2014 and any one of these courts could prevent the vote-buying scheme from taking effect before midterms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what you need to know to understand the relevant issues, the pending cases, and the Biden administration\u2019s desperation to keep the courts from addressing the legality of his student-loan wipeout.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> <strong>How It All Began<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>On Aug. 24, 2022, Biden announced that the Department of Education will provide up to $20,000 in student loan cancellation, with individuals earning less than $125,000 ($250,000 for married couples), qualifying for this relief. The secretary of education then, on Aug. 30, 2022, issued a memorandum explaining its view that it had the authority under the HEROES Act to cancel student loans, reversing the opinion of the Trump administration that no such categorical authority exists.<\/p>\n<p>The HEROES Act is a federal statute Congress passed in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks that, among other things, authorized the secretary of education to \u201cwaive or modify any statutory or regulatory provision applicable to the student assistance programs\u201d when the secretary deems it \u201cnecessary in connection with a war or other military operation or national emergency\u2026\u201d Under the HEROES Act, \u201cthe term \u2018national emergency\u2019 means a national emergency declared by the President of the United States.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration\u2019s secretary of education on Oct. 12, published the terms of the student loan cancelation plan, justifying the action based on the presidential proclamation of a national emergency due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting \u201cfinancial hardship arising out of the COVID\u201319 pandemic on individuals who owe student loans.\u201d Since then, the administration has opened a portal to apply for loan cancelations, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/money\/careersandeducation\/8-million-student-loan-borrowers-have-already-applied-for-debt-cancellation-without-a-glitch-biden-says\/ar-AA134jBL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">president claiming<\/a> on Friday that 8 million borrowers had already submitted applications.<\/p>\n<p>Even before the secretary of education published the terms of the Biden administration student-loan cancellation plan,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Any one of several legal challenges could prevent Biden&#8217;s vote-buying plot from taking effect before midterms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":499,"featured_media":1708490,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1708485","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1708485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/499"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1708485"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1708485\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1708490"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1708485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1708485"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1708485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
