On Wednesday the Supreme Court refused to immediately clear the way for the Biden administration's new student loan relief and repayment plan, adding to uncertainty about the future of a program that would affect millions of borrowers and has become part of the sharp political debate over who is responsible for hefty tuition debt.
Biden introduced the program, Saving on a Valuable Education, last fall as millions of Americans resumed student loan payments after a hiatus of more than three years because of the pandemic.
The plan, commonly known as Save, offered lower monthly payments and a faster path to loan cancellation. It launched months after the justices divided along ideological lines to invalidate a separate, $400 billion Biden administration program to forgive student loan debt.
