<p>The U.S. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/supreme-court" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Supreme Court</a> agreed Monday to hold arguments in a second case against the Biden administration’s student loan forgiveness program from a small business organization challenging the constitutionality of canceling billions of dollars in student loan debt.</p>
<p>The nation&#8217;s highest court agreed to hear the case after a federal judge in Texas ruled last month that President Joe Biden&#8217;s student loan bailout is illegal in response to a lawsuit filed by the Job Creators Network Foundation, which alleged that Biden&#8217;s student loan bailout violated federal procedures.</p>
<p>Elaine Parker, president of the Job Creators Network Foundation, told The Daily Wire in a news release that the network is &#8220;pleased that the Supreme Court has decided to hear our case.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;If this illegal program isn&#8217;t stopped, it will give the executive branch a blank check, not only for this president, but every future president without any input from Congress or any public participation,&#8221; Parker said.</p>
<p>Under Biden&#8217;s program, about 26 million borrowers have applied to the Department of Education for forgiveness and could receive up to $10,000 in student debt relief if they make less than $125,000 or $250,000 per household.</p>
<p>The nonpartisan <a href="https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2022-09/58494-Student-Loans.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Congressional Budget Office</a> estimated that Biden&#8217;s plan would cost around $400 billion, while the Biden administration <a href="https://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/us-department-education-estimate-biden-harris-student-debt-relief-cost-average-30-billion-annually-over-next-decade" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a> it would cost approximately $300 billion.</p>
<p>One U.S. district court judge in Texas took a sledgehammer to President Biden&#8217;s attempt to bail out certain student loans.</p>
<p>Judge Mark T. Pittman offered three key reasons why the attempt came as an egregious mistake, noting the law cited by the Education Department for justification of the bailout — the HEROES Act — does not stipulate that it can be applied to student loans, using COVID as a means to justify the program did not accurately reflect why it is essential, and the executive does not have proper authority on the matter.</p>
<p>Parker, with the small business organization, argued that the Biden administration has no emergency authority under the HEROES Act to cancel hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debts.</p>
<p>&#8220;Congress should instead address the root of the student loan problem: unaccountable colleges that rapidly raise tuition while sitting on $700 billion in endowments,&#8221; Parker added.</p>
<p>Network officials filed the lawsuit last month on behalf of two borrowers who did not qualify or were ineligible to receive the full amount that the program offered.</p>
<p>Justice Samuel Alito said, as reported by <a href="https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/supreme-court-take-small-business-groups-case-against-student-loan?utm_source=tw&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=twjtn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Just the News</a>, that SCOTUS will examine if the Department of Education&#8217;s forgiveness program was &#8220;statutorily authorized and was adopted in a procedurally proper manner.&#8221;</p>
<p>Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar had urged the justices, as reported by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/12/politics/supreme-court-student-loan-challenge/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a>, to remove the block on the program and hear oral arguments.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is the second of two cases in which lower courts have entered nationwide orders blocking the Secretary of Education&#8217;s plan to use his statutory authority to provide debt relief to student-loan borrowers affected by the Covid-19 pandemic,&#8221; Prelogar said in court papers.</p>
<p>Biden administration officials were also slapped with a lawsuit last month by six Republican-led states that challenged the program, arguing it poses a threat to their future tax revenues and avoids congressional oversight.</p>
<p>Reuters <a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-supreme-court-takes-up-second-biden-appeal-student-debt-plan-fight-2022-12-12/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that both cases could be heard as early as February 2023.</p>
