BREAKING - IS THIS LEGAL? -@JoeBiden administration announces it has forgiven $39 billion in student loan debt to more than 800,000 borrowers.

U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said in a statement, "For far too long, borrowers fell through the cracks of a broken system that failed to keep accurate track of their progress towards forgiveness.
