student loan debt, despite the supreme court decision that invalidated his student loan forgiveness program. it was a 6-3 decision. the court ruling the president did not have the authority to wipe out nearly $400 billion of student loan debt. biden's executive order eliminated up to $10,000 of student debt per borrower. earlier this afternoon, biden announced his administration will roll out a new program that will help borrowers who fall behind on student loan payments. >> if you miss payments, this on-ramp temporarily removes the threat of default or having your credit harmed, which can hurt borrowers for years to come. larry: the president said he will use in 1965 higher education act to release borrowers from student loan debt under certain circumstances but the white house is not provided details on what those circumstances will be. kristen: today's other big decision from the supreme court, justices ruled in colorado cannot force a website designer to express messages with which

she disagrees. critics say the ruling sets a dangerous precedent, making it easier for businesses to discriminate. suzanne fawn joins us in the newsroom with reaction from the bay area. reporter: we spoke to people in the legal community and the lgbtq plus community, and a small business owner. . many of them are shocked by the supreme court's decision on this last day of pride. >> this is one of the invitations we did years back. reporter: in the financial district, they create all sorts of specialized invitations. >> korean wedding invitations. reporter: especially for weddings. >> we do wedding invitations for everybody. reporter: jack's business has done a lot of work for gay weddings. >> have been ordering their stationary with us. same-sex couple, we designed it and printed it. reporter: he and many others were shocked about the decision today. >> i'm surprised and i hope it will change the decision.

it is very strange hearing that, coming from the supreme court. reporter: uc while san francisco professor matthew coles explains what this latest decision means. >> this involves speech you object to somebody who wants to use it, the first amendment lets you do that. so it means i think that people who don't approve of same-sex marriage or people or interracial marriage or don't approve of latino people or asian people and involveda in ar business that somehow involvese speech, the court says you have a constitutional right to refuse service. >> this decision is an externally dangerous one. reporter: this store employee worries about the impact of this decision. >> first of all it's going to impact the lgbtq+ community. of course it is. but it has larger implications than just that. it could be suddenly, oh, we are

going to the side it's perfectly ok to discriminate against certain people. this makes it legally precedent that it is ok to discriminate against somebody. >> for me, is a little bit this termination. if i have a business, i hope everyone is welcome. reporter: today state senator scott weiner shared the tw eet, "this ruling is dangerous and horrifying." today, san francisco city attorney david hsu released a statement saying that the city will of course fight to ensure the lgbtq plus communities as well as every member of a protected class are supported and welcome in public accommodations. larry: so much to unpack with today's ruling. joining us now to take a closer

look at those rulings is political analyst jackie spear. thank you for your time this afternoon. >> this is a profound decisions. the supreme court has really earned the moniker, the extreme supremes, with these decisions. coupled with the dobbs decision on a board and, telling epa they didn't have the authority to regulate certain industries, that states didn't have the authority to control concealed weapons, now these decisions with affirmative action, the one relative to lgbtq, and the one relative to student loans, it is destabilizing our country. and for a court that was supposed to be very focused on the constitution, originalists in their whole outlook, they have become activists to the

greatest extent we have ever seen. so the other thing that is important to point out is the role of leonard leo. who probably has not come up today at all. he has been the head of the federalist society. he also has a separate entity that is a form of aipac. -- of a have received the largest donation ever. does not have to be disclosed. and he is using those funds to then fund many of these entities that have filed these lawsuits. in the case of the she has not been harmed. in the case of the student loan situation, the entity has not been harmed and would not be harmed. so to take these cases when there is no harm, it

suggests that the court is overreaching. kristen: i want to take a closer look at the ruling for the web designer. interesting that the majority frame to this as a free-speech protection for the web designer and not freedom from discrimination for any same-sex couples that may want to use the business. what do you make of that? >> i think it is such a slippery slope. that would suggest that any number of businesses can decline to offer services because they have some freedom of expression that would be violated by doing so. it is actually discriminate in against a protected class. congress actually passed the marriage equality bill last year. it became law. so now are we saying the decorator that was told that she couldn't just committed against a gay couple is able to do so even though we passed a law that says gay marriage is

legal in this country? if it is legal in this country, that all the elements of a marriage should be supported and protected under the constitution. larry: i want to get your thoughts on one other item today. with the court blocking president biden's plan to cancel $400 billion in student debt. your reaction and the possibility of what's been floated as some alternative plan to get around this? >> i think was going to happen is the president is going to offer another executive order. that then will go through the legal process. so you are going to have these student debtters and position where they are able to hold out for a wire. the real issue allow these students to acquire hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt? and then why is it that it is the only debt that cannot be asked anguished with bankruptcy?

and has everything to do with the fact that you've had these private for-profit universities and colleges that have been able to lobby congress and protect themselves. the result is you've had these ballooning loans by many of these students. i think $400 billion is a lot of money and the court is right in suggesting that somehow congress should take that action. congress will not take that action in the next two years. so we are going to have a supreme court that is going to trump, no pun intended, congress in actually legislating all the things that conservatives have suggested the court should not be doing. kristen: thanks for your analysis. larry: some sports it's good news for golden state warriors fans. draymond green will remain a warrior for four more years at least. espn, reporting he is assigning a four year $100 million contract extension with a player
