8th Circuit Blocks Biden's Student Loan Forgiveness Plan

The 8th Circuit Court of Appeals has just blocked Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness plan, known as the 'SAVE' plan. The cost of this plan was $7.4 billion and Biden was hoping to provide relief to some 277,000 people with student loans. However, several groups of Republican-led states filed legal challenges, arguing that the Biden administration exceeded the authority Congress provided.

The court's order could have significant ramifications for millions of borrowers. The SAVE plan was a new income-driven repayment program designed to provide affordable payments and multiple pathways to loan forgiveness. The Education Department began implementing the program in phases, but the legal challenges have thrown the federal student loan repayment system into chaos.

The 8th Circuit's order seems to go much further than the Missouri court's original injunction, which only blocked student loan forgiveness under SAVE. The 8th Circuit's order could be read to block the entire program, including lower payments, generous subsidies to prevent runaway interest accrual, and automated income recertification.

Notably, the 8th Circuit is the same court that blocked Biden's first student debt cancellation plan. That plan would have provided $10,000 or more in student loan forgiveness for millions of borrowers. The Biden administration appealed that ruling to the Supreme Court, which ultimately struck down the initiative.


This latest ruling is a significant victory for those who believe that the federal government should not be in the business of forgiving student loans. The Biden administration has argued that the SAVE plan is necessary to provide relief to borrowers who are struggling to make their payments. However, critics argue that the plan is nothing more than a political bribe, designed to win votes in the upcoming election.

Regardless of the motivation behind the SAVE plan, it is clear that the courts are not willing to allow the Biden administration to exceed its authority. The 8th Circuit's ruling is a reminder that the federal government is not a bottomless pit of money, and that there are limits to what it can do.

It remains to be seen whether the Biden administration will appeal this latest ruling to the Supreme Court. However, given the court's previous ruling on student loan forgiveness, it is unlikely that the administration will be successful.

In the meantime, millions of borrowers are left in limbo, unsure of what the future holds for their student loans. The SAVE plan was supposed to provide relief, but it now appears that it will only cause more confusion and uncertainty.

It is time for the federal government to step back and allow the free market to work. There are many private companies that are willing to provide student loan forgiveness and repayment plans. These companies are able to do so because they are not bound by the same restrictions as the federal government.

The federal government should focus on creating an environment that encourages private companies to provide student loan forgiveness and repayment plans. This would allow borrowers to have more options and would not require the federal government to exceed its authority.

In the end, the 8th Circuit's ruling is a victory for those who believe in limited government and the rule of law. It is a reminder that the federal government cannot simply do whatever it wants, regardless of the consequences.
