(The Center Square) – A group of 23 attorneys general led by Missouri and Kansas has put the Biden administration’s Department of Education on notice about its fourth attempt to force American taxpayers to pay for others' student loan debt.
With less than three months left in the administration, the DOE published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register on Oct. 31, announcing another attempt by the federal government to pay off student loan debt despite the U.S. Supreme Court ruling it cannot do so. The proposed rule is entitled, “Student Debt Relief for the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (Direct Loans), the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program, the Federal Perkins Loan (Perkins) Program, and the Health Education Assistance Loan (HEAL) Program.”
It authorizes Education Department Secretary Miguel Cardona to establish new loan balance waivers for borrowers deemed to be “experiencing hardship” and gives him the authority to cancel student debt for borrowers who have $0 monthly payments. It follows three other waiver attempts all blocked by federal courts.
