“I am disappointed that the U.S. Supreme Court today ruled against the Biden Administration’s efforts to provide student loan debt relief to individuals who were hit hard financially by the COVID-19 pandemic. Tens of millions of Americans were eligible for as much as $20,000 in debt relief under the Administration’s policy.
“Today’s court decision takes that money out of the pockets of hardworking people. Along with yesterday’s decision on affirmative action, the Supreme Court has delivered a one-two punch to efforts to make higher education accessible and affordable for everyone.
“Here in New Jersey, we will continue our efforts to make college more affordable and accessible to all those seeking a higher education. I encourage our federal partners to continue seeking solutions to the student loan debt crisis facing many working and middle-class Americans throughout our country.”
