Report: White House Mulling Options To Ease Student Loan Debt

The administration is considering options to bypass legal challenges to student loan forgiveness. The moratorium on loan repayment, initially issued by Trump during the pandemic, was set to end in January as per Biden's announcement. However, court rulings have blocked Biden's executive order to forgive up to $20,000 in student loan debt. The White House is appealing these rulings and has not decided on further actions. The moratorium has been in place since March 2020 under the COVID Emergency Relief program.
