Conservative groups and AGs plot legal strategy to overturn Biden student debt relief: 'Who’s our Jane Roe?'

Just days after President Joe Biden announced his intent to relieve up to $20,000 of debt for millions of student borrowers, several conservative advocacy groups and attorneys general are mulling strategies to block the president’s plan in court.

Under the plan Biden announced this week, borrowers who earn under $125,000 individually or $250,000 as a household would have $10,000 in debt relieved, and those who received a Pell Grant can have up to $20,000 canceled. Critics have pushed back, branding the bailout an egregious example of executive overreach and a way to sidestep congressional approval on such massive spending.
