The U.S. Supreme Court tomorrow will hear a pair of cases challenging President Joe Biden's appeal of rulings that struck down his administration’s effort to cancel billions of dollars in student debt. So far, Republican-appointed judges have kept the plan from going into effect. A Texas federal judge deemed the program unlawful, and the 8th Circuit upheld an injunction in a separate case brought by a group of Republican states. The justices have scheduled two hours of arguments in the case, though it will probably go longer, the Associated Press reports. The public can listen in on the court’s website beginning at 10 a.m. EST.
