Friend, student debt cancellation is long overdue – especially for marginalized groups who are most affected by the racial wealth gap and rising inflation.
But if Congress makes student debt cancellation a legislative priority, they could stop the courts from creating more legal roadblocks to President Biden’s plan and relieve the concerns of student loan borrowers everywhere.
And don’t forget: Young voters showed up in waves for Democrats during the 2022 midterm elections, many of whom were mobilized by key issues like college affordability. Democrats in Congress owe it to these voters to represent their interests and push for student debt relief before we lose our hard-won majority in the House.
