II. The Secretary of Education, Miguel Cardona’s
Distorted Reading of the HEROES Act Also

CONCLUSION .......................................................... 21
"The Framers would be “rubbing their eyes” in
disbelief at these brazen trespasses against Article I
limits. City of Arlington v. FCC, 569 U.S. 290, 313
(2013) (Roberts, C.J., dissenting). The laws
governing Americans are increasingly “nothing more
than the will of the current President.” Stephen
Breyer, Making Our Democracy Work: A Judge’s View 110 (2010); see also The Federalist No. 47, at
303 (James Madison) (Clinton Rossiter ed., 1961)
(“When the legislative and executive powers are
united in the same person or body, there can be no
liberty. . . .”).
The Secretary’s discovery in the HEROES Act of
Executive authority to forgive hundreds of billions of
dollars in federal student loans is another such
encroachment on Congress’s legislative powers."
