A federal judge in Missouri put a temporary hold on President Joe Biden’s latest student loan cancellation plan on Thursday, slamming the door on hope it would move forward after another judge allowed a pause to expire.

Just as it briefly appeared the Biden administration would have a window to push its plan forward, U.S. District Judge Matthew Schelp in Missouri granted an injunction blocking any widespread cancellation.

    Easy solution: don’t cancel debt for people who live in those states. Say the Republicans blocked it. Move forward with everyone else.

      And then encourage people with useful degrees to move to states which will cancel the debt.
