Summary
The Biden administration has canceled $4.28 billion in federal student loans for 55,000 workers under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program, benefiting teachers, nurses, and other public service employees.
This marks the final round of PSLF relief before Biden leaves office, bringing his total student loan cancellations to $180 billion for 4.9 million Americans.
While Biden expanded PSLF by easing restrictive rules, he failed to achieve broader loan forgiveness after Supreme Court and legal challenges blocked his efforts.
Republicans criticize the cancellations as unfair taxpayer burdens, while Trump has opposed Biden’s plans.
Republicans will sue. Trump’s supreme court will rule for Republicans and overturn Biden’s executive order.
Then everyone will say, “Both sides are the same.” and not vote.
FTFY
He needs to play hardball and destroy the fucking records and pardon anyone that assists him in this. Be the King that SCOTUS said you are!
He won’t. Breaking norms is only for pardoning his cokehead failson and selling weapons to Netanyahu for genocide.
At least Palestine is finally safe.
(If you require a “/s”, fuck yourself in the face)
So what did he try to do to scrap the whole excessive debts in the first place thing? Did he push for a law to end student debt and create free education across the board?
Or are we just cheering helping a very small amount of people in slow moving theater.
Genuinely curious here.
Any good is better than no good.
We all want a politician that will stand and fight for the best thing and only compromise when they absolutely can’t get that thing, and Democrats have a history of compromising themselves before there’s even pushback. I get it. But doing something that will help 55,000 people isn’t nothing.
Try Google if you’re actually curious… It went to the Supreme Court, dude.
