This will undoubtedly transform lives.
This is a victory, John.
This afternoon, President Biden announced his administration will be canceling up to $20,000 of federal student loan debt per person.
Here are the details:
→ Pell Grant recipients will be eligible for up to $20,000 in debt cancellation for those earning less than $125,000
→ Non-Pell Grant recipients will be eligible for up to $10,000 in debt cancellation for those earning less than $125,000
→ The pause on federal student loan repayment will be extended one final time through December 31, 2022
→ Those with undergraduate loans will be able to cap repayment at 5% of your monthly income
This will undoubtedly transform lives — and we want President Biden to know this is a top priority for our progressive movement. Please, if you have a moment, will you fill out our survey now to share what student debt cancellation will mean to you?

Today's action is a vital first step in our work to achieve racial and economic justice — but it will not be our last. In Congress, Cori will continue to advocate for full student debt cancellation.
We are grateful for the organizers, activists, and advocates behind today's announcement, but we are most powerful when we work together. So please, will you add your voice to our movement and share what student debt cancellation will mean to you?
In solidarity,
Team Cori
