Trump Admin Asks Supreme Court To Freeze Deadlines In Biden-Era Cases

President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice has asked the Supreme Court to halt several cases that were filed during now-former President Joe Biden’s term.The cases center around Biden’s executive actions on student loan forgiveness and the environment, Fox News reported.

“Acting Solicitor General Sarah Harris filed several motions Friday asking the court to halt proceedings in the student loan case and three environmental cases while the new administration will “reassess the basis for and soundness” of Biden’s policies,” the report saidThe Supreme Court was expected to hear oral arguments for these cases in March or April and issue decisions later this term. But Trump’s DOJ requested that the high court halt all written brief deadlines, which would put them on indefinite hold,” he said.

More than 5 million students had their debt canceled by the Department of Education under Biden but had faced several court challenges.

Some Republican state attorney generals said that the president acted outside of his authority by issuing the student loan forgiveness without Congress.The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals blocked Biden’s ‘borrow defense’ rule, which canceled the debt of students who were defrauded by their schools, arguing that the rule had “numerous statutory and regulatory shortcomings.”

The Supreme Court had agreed to hear arguments in the cases, but now the Trump administration has asked the court to freeze the deadlines, indicating that it is likely his administration will rescind the rules, thereby rendering the cases moot.

“The three environmental cases have to do with regulations issued by the Environmental Protection Agency during the Biden administration that were challenged,” Fox said.

Trump has also taken flamethrower to Biden’s radical left “climate” agenda with a series of executive orders aimed at boosting domestic fossil fuel energy production
