(Worthy News) – The Senate voted 52-46 on Thursday to block President Joe Biden’s student loan relief program.
The legislation would repeal Biden’s debt relief program and resume federal student loan debt payments, which the administration had on pause. Moderate senators, including Democrat Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Jon Tester of Montana as well as independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, voted with Republicans to pass the bill.
“With prices on the rise and our debt crisis getting worse by the day, the last thing we need is yet another debt-financed spending spree, this one to pay off someone else’s student loans,” Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) tweeted after the resolution passed. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
