More than 45 million people owe more than $1.8 trillion: That’s the student loan debt crisis in America.
The student debt crisis has surpassed $1.8 trillion.
On top of the devastating and long term economic effects of COVID-19, leaving families struggling to pay their bills — people are expected to start making student loans payments again on February 1, 2022.
With one swipe of the pen, President Biden could free a generation of people from the crushing burden of student loan debt.
It’s clear: we need to address the student debt crisis for the millions of Americans it affects every day. If you agree, will you join Ro, Jamaal Bowman, Ayanna Pressley, Ilhan Omar, and other progressive champions in demanding comprehensive student debt relief?

Student debt has gone up by more than 300% since 2003 — yet Congress has made little to no movement to help alleviate this gigantic burden on students. It’s why in his first term, Ro co-sponsored Bernie Sanders’ bill to make public four-year colleges and universities affordable for all — but we have to keep fighting.
College should be an available opportunity for anyone, regardless of income — and together we can make that a reality. It’s going to require a wave of support for our movement.
Sign on to this petition right now to stand with Ro in demanding comprehensive student debt relief.
In solidarity,
