The White House says it doesn't have a backup plan to cancel student debt right now if the Supreme Court strikes down Biden's broad relief

• A White House official told reporters that Biden is not "deliberating or considering" a backup plan to cancel student debt.
• This comes as the Supreme Court is taking up two lawsuits next month that are currently blocking Biden's broad relief.
• The White House maintains confidence in its authority, but advocates have argued there's another route.

The White House is so confident in President Joe Biden's student-loan forgiveness plan that it isn't weighing a backup right now if the nation's highest court strikes it down.
