WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Six states filed a challenge to the Biden administration’s student loan cancellation program in federal court in Missouri on Thursday, Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson said.

In the lawsuit, Nebraska and five other states asked the court for an immediate temporary restraining order pausing the program. Prompt relief is being sought because the Biden administration has indicated it will start cancelling loan balances as early as next week, Peterson said in a statement.
