Fetterman Statement on SCOTUS Student Loan Forgiveness Plan Decision

WASHINGTON, DC – Pennsylvania U.S. Senator John Fetterman today released the following statement on the Supreme Court’s decision on Biden v. Nebraska:

“Our government has spent TRILLIONS to bail out the big banks and the CEOs who crashed our economy. Our government cancelled MILLIONS in pandemic loans for Members of Congress. Yet SCOTUS is saying we cannot cancel some of the student loan debt for working people.

“This is just ridiculous.

“Today’s ruling is just one of many arbitrary rulings that have been handed down by this extremist court this term. It is becoming crystal clear that some of these “Justices” are laser-focused on doing the bidding of their rich donors who fly them around the world on their private jets, take them out on their mega yachts, and buy their families’ homes in sweetheart deals.

“These Justices don’t care about the rule of law. This is a YOLO court, and if they’re wondering why so many Americans no longer have trust in the institution, they have only themselves to thank.”
