Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s office said Thursday night that Missouri and five other Republican-leaning states will appeal a federal judge’s ruling dismissing a lawsuit that challenged President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan. 

Schmitt, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Missouri, and Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt joined GOP officials from four other states to file a lawsuit last month in U.S. District Court attempting to block Biden’s plan. They alleged the states’ student loan servicer faces financial harm because of the plan. 

But a federal judge announced last night the states weren’t able to adequately prove that their states were harmed by the program and lacked standing to bring the case.
