Whether it was my parents insisting I paid back the five dollars I borrowed from my brother, or my drill sergeant ensuring I completed the requisite number of pushups for an unkempt bunk, the importance of paying one\u2019s debts was drilled into me from an early age. Hardworking Americans would live by this advice, and our economy and communities thrived as a result.<\/p>\n<p>But now, President Joe Biden\u2019s unconstitutional decision to unilaterally &#8220;cancel&#8221; students\u2019 debt puts the underpinning of our commercial system at serious risk. That\u2019s why as Missouri\u2019s Attorney General, I will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/judiciary\/supreme-court\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">head to the United States Supreme Court<\/a> to oppose this illegal and harmful policy.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no such thing as &#8220;canceling a debt.&#8221; The debt\u2019s weight is just shifted. In this case, it\u2019s thrust on the backs of the American taxpayers, who had no say in taking on that debt. But that won\u2019t stop Joe Biden and his Administration. They pushed through an unconstitutional loan forgiveness plan &#8211; knowing full well they didn\u2019t have the necessary authority from Congress. In 2021, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi agreed, saying, &#8220;The president can\u2019t do it\u2026 It would take an act of Congress, not an executive order, to cancel student loan debt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Constitution clearly states that Congress has the power of the purse. The executive branch cannot unilaterally wipe away hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt \u2013 debts American taxpayers have funded with the expectation the debts would be repaid \u2013 without express approval by Congress. Since Congress has not passed any law wiping student loan debt off the books, Biden\u2019s action is illegal on its face.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/supreme-court-hear-gop-state-challenge-pandemic-related-biden-student-loan-debt-relief-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>SUPREME COURT TO HEAR GOP STATE CHALLENGE TO PANDEMIC-RELATED BIDEN STUDENT LOAN RELIEF PLAN<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yet Biden\u2019s illegal action runs deeper than simply wiping debt off the government ledger: it is an intentional transfer of wealth from working-class Americans to lawyers, government bureaucrats, and graduates with a master\u2019s degree in gender studies. It\u2019s fundamentally unfair to the people who didn&#8217;t take out loans or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/education\/college\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chose not to go to college<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And even some of the president\u2019s fellow Democrats have described the forgiveness program as a blatantly political attempt to win at the ballot box.<\/p>\n<p>This political, unconstitutional redistribution of wealth is personal to me. As a combat veteran, I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/education\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">paid for my education<\/a> in blood, sweat, and tears. I come from humble beginnings, and we didn\u2019t have tens of thousands of dollars to spend on a college education. I had to find a way to pursue my dreams of earning a college degree without saddling myself with debt I may not be able to repay.<\/p>\n<p>After graduation from the University of Missouri-Columbia, I was commissioned as an Officer in the United States Army and deployed twice to support Operation Iraqi Freedom. When I returned from deployment In 2009, I used the GI bill to enroll at the University of Missouri School of Law. I could have never imagined that one day I would come before the United States Supreme Court to defend the rights of my fellow Missourians.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When the president tries to buy off one constituency with the tax dollars of another, the American people lose. But what\u2019s worse is President Biden knowingly threw nearly 27 million Americans into financial limbo by promising &#8220;relief&#8221; that he knows is actually illegal. And in doing so, he taught a generation of Americans a false lesson about fairness and what it means to take on a debt.<\/p>\n<p>As Missouri\u2019s Attorney General, I will never stop fighting to uphold the Constitution and to defend the people of Missouri from harmful federal policies. With Joe Biden in the White House, that means I will never stop fighting against the Biden administration\u2019s heavy hand of the administrative state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/defending-taxpayers-supreme-court-after-paying-education-blood-sweat-tears\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/defending-taxpayers-supreme-court-after-paying-education-blood-sweat-tears <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Pay what you owe.&#8221; It\u2019s a simple, but important, directive.
