SCOTUS DECIDES FEDERAL LAWSUIT ON ISSUES RAISED BY BCTA AND WILL

The Court found that Biden’s plan implicated the “major questions doctrine,” which was the same argument raised by the Brown County Taxpayers Association in its case. BCTA filed the first lawsuit (BCTA v. Biden, 10/4/22) in the nation that made it all the way to the Supreme Court, but was unable to obtain an injunction.
Brown County Taxpayers Association Files Tuition Forgiveness Lawsuit
Brown County Taxpayers Association Files Lawsuit: Biden’s Tuition Forgiveness Is Unconstitutional
Green Bay, WI – (October 4, 2022) – Brown County Taxpayers Association (“BCTA”) filed a three-count complaint in Eastern Wisconsin’s US Federal District Court against defendants including the President of the United States and the Secretary of the US Department of Education. In its filing, the BCTA asserts that President Biden’s One-Time Student Loan Debt Relief Plan (the “Plan”) violates the US Constitution’s separation of powers between Congress and the Executive branch. The complaint also claims the Plan breaches the 5th Amendment’s equal protection doctrine by expressly stating that its purpose is to advance “racial equity”. The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (“WILL”) is representing the BCTA in its legal action.
