A conservative small-business advocacy group has filed a new lawsuit seeking to block the Biden administration's efforts to forgive student loan debt for tens of millions of Americans — the latest legal challenge to the program.

Over 700,000 Borrowers No Longer Qualify for Student Loan Relief—How to Check If You're Still Eligible

Meanwhile, a federal judge in Wisconsin last week dismissed a lawsuit from a local taxpayers group, the Brown County Taxpayers Association, that sought to block the program, ruling that the group didn't have standing to bring the lawsuit. The group had argued that Biden’s order unlawfully circumvented Congress’ power over spending and said the plan was discriminatory because it sought to give particular help to borrowers of color.

“Behind closed doors, the Department promulgated a new Debt Forgiveness Program that will affect tens of millions of Americans and cost hundreds of billions of dollars," the suit reads. “Instead of providing notice and seeking comment from the public, the Department hammered out the critical details of the Program in secret and with an eye toward securing debt forgiveness in time for the November election.

“The result of this arbitrariness is predictable: some will benefit handsomely, some will be shortchanged, and others will be left out entirely," it reads.

It doesn't sound like the AP (article source) got anyone to weigh in on whether the plaintiffs have standing.

Small businesses should be the last group opposing this. At least that money will be spent here in the US as opposed to wasting billions in Ukraine or the climate change scam.The govt also needs to stop giving out so much money to students so colleges lower their insane tuitions

No legal standing. Will get tossed. They also took PPP loans. Massive hypocrites.
