Conservative Supreme Court Justices appeared doubtful in court over President Joe Biden's controversial plan to forgive student loans held by millions of Americans. ASU students give their take as they're the ones directly impacted.
The split on this is almost 50/50 as many are wanting their fees to be forgiven, while others feel betrayed after working and planning to pay them off.
Zukeiry, however, is all for loan forgiveness, saying, "I feel like a lot of people need the money. There is a lot of friends that I have that are struggling to pay their debts and are having to take out student loans, so I 100% agree."In a national exit poll conducted for the 2022 midterm election, 50% of midterm voters, mostly Democrat, approved Biden’s plan while 47%, mostly Republicans, did not.
Arguments lasted three hours in the Supreme Court on Feb. 28 as Chief Justice John Roberts led his conservative colleagues in questioning the Biden administration's authority to cancel federal student loans and whether it’s fair to all students.Biden first announced the plan in August with the goal to cancel up to $20,000 in student loan debt for millions of Americans and wipe away nearly half a trillion in debt.
