Conservative groups like the Job Creators Network, which is assessing legal and political options to oppose the handout, say the argument for Biden's ability to act unilaterally in canceling student debt for millions of borrowers rests on shaky ground.
"This a bailout enacted by executive overreach akin to the administration’s illegal employer vaccine mandate and eviction moratorium that were struck down by the Supreme Court," said Alfredo Ortiz, the group's president. "Like those examples of Biden's regulatory state, this action should also be challenged in court."
