As Joe Biden is preparing to exit the White House, Democrats and activists on the left are urging him to give away more student loan debt forgiveness.
These people know that the gravy train is coming to an end soon and they want to maximize the grift while they still can.
Of course, the U.S. Supreme Court has already told Biden that he can’t do this but that hasn’t stopped him so far.
FOX News reports:
Top Dems, activists call on Biden admin to dole out more student loan forgiveness before term ends
Top Democratic lawmakers and activists alike are calling on the Biden administration to ignore a federal injunction and continue wiping out student loan debt before the president leaves office.
Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Ed Markey, D-Mass, held a press conference alongside a cohort of activist groups on Wednesday from the nation’s capital, calling on the Department of Education to finish granting federal student loan forgiveness for borrowers it pledged to help. These borrowers attended either now-defunct or predatory for-profit colleges.
“I’m urging the Biden administration in the closing hours of their administration – the last seven weeks – come to the rescue of these students as quickly as possible,” Durbin said Monday from the Senate floor.
In 2022 and 2023, President Biden’s Education Department announced it would grant student loan forgiveness for 560,000 borrowers who attended Corinthian Colleges Inc., as well as to 208,000 borrowers who attended ITT Technical Institute. While most of those students had their loans fully forgiven, according to the Project on Predatory Student Lending (PPSL), at least 145,000 former Corinthian students who were approved to have their loans forgiven still have not gotten their promised relief.
Rep. Virginia Foxx of North Carolina is the chair of the House Education Committee and is fighting this.

House education chair demands Biden admin nix ‘blatantly illegal’ latest student loan scheme
House Education Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx is ripping the outgoing Biden administration’s latest proposed student loan forgiveness scheme as “blatantly illegal” and demanding the federal Department of Education nix it.
Just before last month’s election, the Department of Education announced it was launching yet another attempt to get through President Biden’s hotly controversial plan despite numerous court slap-downs in the past…
“This fourth scheme is just as legally dubious as the prior Biden-Harris administration attempts to ‘cancel’ student loan borrowers’ debts, but have the American taxpayer pick up the tab,” Foxx wrote to DOE Secretary Miguel Cardona in a Monday letter exclusively obtained by The Post.
Taxpayers should not be forced to be on the hook for other people’s student loans. It’s pretty simple.
