Following today’s Supreme Court decision overturning Joe Biden’s attempt to illegally use taxpayer dollars to bail out billions of dollars in student loans, top Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Elizabeth Warren immediately attacked the Court.
But their colleagues like Jon Tester, Sherrod Brown, and Bob Casey were curiously silent on the decision given they eagerly supported Biden’s bailout just last year. Have they changed their minds?
“Joe Biden’s illegal student loan bailout would have benefited the wealthy at the expense of hardworking Americans but that didn’t stop Senate Democrats from happily lining up behind Biden’s brazen overreach. Senate Democrats should let their constituents know whether or not they’ll retract their support for Biden’s illegal bailout.” – NRSC Spokesman Philip Letsou
