The Senate voted Thursday to kill President Biden's student loan handout, which would cost the government more than $400 billion and has been delayed by court action.
The Senate vote followed last week’s 218-203 vote in the House to kill the program that Republicans have said is unfair to Americans who either never took out student loans or paid them off. Pete Kasperowicz is a politics editor at Fox News Digital.
