TL;DR Summary

The Senate has passed a Republican-led resolution to strike down President Biden's plan to forgive more than $400 billion in student loans, which would also restart loan payments for tens of millions of borrowers that have been on pause since early in the coronavirus pandemic. The resolution would prevent the Education Department from pursuing similar policies in the future.
