Student loan caes

Student loan cases are two cases consolidated before the U.S. Supreme Court, Nos. 22-506 (lead case) and 22-535, on an expedited schedule for consideration and decision.

A large total of 15 amicus briefs had been filed through January 11, 2023 in this case.

Notable arguments

In an amicus brief filed on January 12, 2023, by the D.C.-based Atlantic Legal Foundation, it makes the following arguments:

• The Executive Branch’s Mass Student Loan Debt Cancellation Violates The Appropriations Clause
  • Enforcement of the Appropriations Clause is critical to the separation of powers
  • The Executive Branch’s abrogation of hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt assets is an unappropriated expenditure of government money
