BOSTON – Massachusetts Governor Maura T. Healey issued the following statement in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling in Biden v. Nebraska finding that the HEROES Act does not authorize President Biden’s student debt relief plan. 

“Our administration is deeply disappointed with the Supreme Court’s decision to invalidate President Biden’s student loan relief plan that would have benefitted millions of student borrowers and our economy as a whole.

We will continue our efforts to make higher education and job training more affordable and accessible in Massachusetts and support federal efforts to provide relief to borrowers who are being crushed by the student debt crisis.”
