  • GOP lawmakers reintroduced a bill to end the student-loan payment pause and block Biden's broad debt relief.
  • They said it's unfair to those who already paid off their student loans.
  • This comes just under two weeks before Biden's student-debt relief plan is headed to the Supreme Court.

Republican lawmakers are once again trying to put millions of student-loan borrowers back into repayment.

On Thursday, GOP Sens. Bill Cassidy and John Thune reintroduced the Stop Reckless Student Loan Actions Act, which would end the ongoing student-loan payment pause and block President Joe Biden from canceling student debt broadly in connection with a national emergency.
