OPINION | The Supreme Court’s conservatives are ignoring a law that gives Biden the authority to take “controversial” actions during a national emergency.
If you don’t believe Justice Kagan, just ask the Trump administration—which relied upon that exact statute to pause student loan repayments and suspend interest accrual because of the national emergency caused by COVID-19.
As Justice Kagan pointed out, the actual non-profit state agency in Missouri tasked with administering student loans did not even join the suit. The two individuals suing at least actually had student loans—although one student only had loans from commercial entities, not loans held by the government. But Justice Neil Gorsuch, part of the conservative majority, was dismissive of their standing.
