A coalition of Democratic lawmakers is intensifying efforts to push for the cancellation of student loan debt for borrowers facing financial hardship. Representative Wilson announced co-leading the effort alongside both House and Senate Democrats. Representative Bowman emphasized the issue's urgency after hearing from constituents, while Senator Warren, along with Senator Schumer, Representative Pressley, and Senator Sanders, called on President Biden and the Department of Education to offer relief to those most in need. Senator Schumer highlighted that the Biden administration has already cancelled student debt for 3.7 million borrowers.
Students shouldn’t miss out on financial aid for college because of the Biden Admin’s failure to roll out a program. Read more about how @SenBillCassidy & @virginiafoxx and I are calling for answers ⬇️ https://t.co/MZQU7cPgbH
President Biden and his administration have cancelled student debt for 3.7 million borrowers and counting! I’m standing with @SenWarren and more to continue to work for action to #CancelStudentDebt. https://t.co/UeP6GTEuil
Borrowers demand and deserve #CancelStudentDebt relief, especially those experiencing financial hardship. That's why we are urging @POTUS and @usedgov to ensure the most vulnerable borrowers are not left behind. https://t.co/hmNHCYg4sK
Americans are getting crushed by student debt, and many are experiencing serious financial hardship. @POTUS should cancel the most debt possible for borrowers who need help the most. @SenSchumer, @RepPressley, @SenSanders & I are urging @usedgov to deliver much-needed relief. https://t.co/y9M8VKoUqS
At our town hall the other night, I heard from a constituent from Rye Brook about his family's student loan debt. We are going to continue pushing the president to cancel loans so no one is burdened by student debt. https://t.co/XETTxHPi6r
I’m proud to co-lead the Democratic House and Senate effort to #CancelStudentLoans for borrowers facing financial hardship. Folks shouldn’t have to suffer economically for getting a college education. https://t.co/yaqMRnjzSY
