More than a dozen amicus curiae briefs were filed with the U.S. Supreme Court this week in favor of President Joe Biden's one-time student loan forgiveness plan by a coalition of legal scholars, economists, consumer advocates, higher education experts, and governments across the country, among others.
The briefs were filed in Nebraska v. Biden and Dept. of Education v. Brown, both of which the Supreme Court is reviewing to judge the legality of the president's plan to forgive up to $20,000 in student loans for federal borrowers earning less than $125,000 per year.
