Justice Roberts skillfully quotes Pelosi over court's Student Loan decision
[BLAZE] The Supreme Court struck down President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness on Friday — and used Rep. Nancy Pelosi's own words to bolster the ruling.In a 6—3 ruling, the court said the petitioner in Biden v. Nebraska had standing under Article III to bring the lawsuit and then applied the so-called "major questions doctrine" to determine that student loans cannot be canceled under the the 2003 HEROES Act, the law Biden claimed gave the Education secretary statutory authority to wipe away $430 billion in student loans. In short, the court ruled that Biden cannot cancel $430 billion in student loans using the HEROES Act because Congress never intended the law to be used that way.
