Tennessee Republicans Celebrate SCOTUS Ruling on Student Debt Forgiveness
As the Supreme Court ruled that Biden’s student loan forgiveness is unconstitutional, Tennessee politicians have been weighing in with their thoughts on the historic ruling:
I applaud the Supreme Court’s decision to block President Biden’s $400 billion student loan forgiveness plan.
87% of Americans without student loans should not be forced to pay for the 13% who do.— Rep. David Kustoff (@RepDavidKustoff) June 30, 2023
The Biden Admin’s attempt to force hardworking Americans to pay for loans they didn’t take & degrees they didn’t receive is neither fair nor right, & today SCOTUS confirmed it’s also illegal. I’m pleased that SCOTUS struck down this brazen, politically motivated violation of law.

Biden wants the rich to get richer off the backs of hardworking Tennesseans. That’s not the American dream – that’s the socialist dream, and I am glad the Supreme Court sided with the amicus brief I led.

This is a major victory for Constitutional government. The executive branch has no right to usurp congressional authority, especially when it will cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars.
