A Wisconsin taxpayer group has asked the Supreme Court to halt President Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan while litigation over the measure proceeds in lower court.
Brown County Taxpayers Association petitioned the high court Wednesday in an emergency request to Justice Amy Coney Barrett to block the student debt cancellation, saying the program is set to begin Oct. 23.
“The Biden Administration will start automatically cancelling student-loan debts owed by tens of millions of borrowers. The blow to the United States Treasury and taxpayers will be staggering — perhaps costing more than one trillion dollars,” the group argued in its 29-page filing.
