Read our privacy policy President Joe Biden’s latest attempt at student loan cancellation is free to move ahead — at least temporarily — after a judge in Georgia decided that a legal challenge should be handled by a court in Missouri. Biden told the Education Department to pursue cancellation through a federal rulemaking process after the Supreme Court rejected an earlier plan using a different legal justification. The Supreme Court rejected Biden’s first proposal in a case brought by Republican states including Missouri, which now takes the lead in the latest lawsuit. The courts are now asking the Missouri court to act quickly saying the Education Department could “unlawfully mass cancel up to hundreds of billions of dollars in student loans as soon as Monday.” Also joining the suit are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, North Dakota and Ohio.
