--------------------------------------------------------

In more news from Capitol Hill, the Senate voted Thursday to revoke
President Biden's student debt plan to give 40 million U.S. borrowers up
to $20,000 in loan relief. Independent Senator Kyrsten Sinema joined
Democratic Senators Joe Manchin and Jon Tester, along with all 49 Senate
Republicans, in favor of repealing student loan relief. President Biden
has promised to veto the bill.
