The Roberts Court's remaking of America.

Biden Overstepped Authority w/Debt Cancellation Boondoggle

'In an effort to buy votes in 2022, Mr. Biden hastily issued an executive order canceling up to $20,000 in debt to Pell Grant recipients with loans held by the Department of Education and up to $10,000 in debt cancellation to non-Pell Grant recipients. The Supreme Court ruled the unilateral decision to cancel $430 billion in debt for 43 million borrowers unconstitutional.'

'“Congress opted to make debt forgiveness available only in a few particular exigent circumstances,” Chief Justice John Roberts said in the decision, adding that none applied in Mr. Biden’s case. He said that Mr. Biden’s use of “waiver power” was far more excessive than that of any other president in history, with Mr. Biden’s executive branch stepping on the responsibilities of the legislative branch.'

The Court is right.

'The Constitution reserves the power of the purse to Congress, as expressed in Article I'

'Even then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recognized this fact in July 2021. “People think that the president of the United States has the power for [student loan] debt forgiveness. He does not,” she said at the time.'
