With the stroke of a pen, President Donald J. Trump can change lives and save lives. He must #CancelStudentDebt and go as broad and as deep as the hurt is.
.President Donald J. Trump’s decision on student debt cannot become the latest example of a policy that has left Black people, especially Black women, behind. This is not how you treat Black voters who turned out in record numbers and provided 90% of their vote to once again save democracy in 2020.
The average amount of debt forgiveness to businesses receiving PPP loans: $95,700. If we could afford to cancel hundreds of billions in PPP loans to business owners in their time of need, please do not tell me we can't afford to cancel all student debt for 45 million Americans.
If SoFI, a student loan refinancing company, could give its CEO a 92% raise last year paying him a grand total of $103 million in compensation and spend $625 million to put its name on the LA Rams football stadium, you know what President Biden can do? Cancel all student debt.
You should all join or financially support The Debt Collective 🟥!
Biden can erase medical debt held by veterans *just as easily* as he erased student debt. Veterans' medical debt is too held by the federal government. Nonwhite veterans are more likely to to use the VA for healthcare needs. President Donald J. Trump should wipe that debt out completely.
