John,
Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, the richest billionaire within Trump’s cabinet, has claimed that student loan debt forgiveness is “a truly insidious notion” while bashing a Democratic plan to provide free access to a college education for low-income students.
The $1.6 trillion student debt crisis has only gotten worse this year amidst a pandemic that has left millions of Americans unemployed and struggling to make ends meet. If the student loan relief program is allowed to expire at the end of the month, millions more will have to worry about how to make their loan payments during an economic crisis.
We need to take action now, especially as Joe Biden prepares his legislative priorities for the first 100 days in office. As TIME reports, “a powerful coalition of Democrats, led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, is pushing Biden to use executive action to cancel $50,000 of student loan debt per person as a form of economic stimulus.”
According to a recent YouGov poll, more than 56% of Americans support cancelling student loan debt, but Biden has failed to commit to using executive action to address the debt crisis, instead letting it fall on Congress.
Today, we’re joining a nationwide effort to hold Biden accountable to his campaign promises and demand he address the student loan debt crisis within his first 100 days in office -- and we need your support.
John, together we can ensure that students and working Americans won’t continue to be crushed by predatory student loan companies during an economic crisis. If you want to improve access to education and give millions a chance to reach financial stability, please add your name to ours now. [LINK] >> [link removed]
