20yrs ago, Biden was stripping borrower protections as a Senator. 2yrs ago, Biden didn't even mention student debt at the SOTU. Now he's boasting relief as 'good for the economy.' A testament to how well organized debtors have shifted this issue cc: The Debt Collective 🟥 NAACP Student Borrower Protection Center

Shoutout to Educator Jones who now #studentdebtfree like almost 4 million Americans who has received relief! . . . but this fight is far from over, more cancellation is on the way because of the advocacy of the people we will close the gap to make it a reality for all #NAACPxSOTU
Every child deserve clean water, we must continue to ensure that we fight for climate action and solutions! #NAACPxSOTU
Love the CWA Boulder community that I have been able to connect with over the past few years. Very excited for this year Conference on World Affairs!
This should sound alarm bells for policy makers that CLAIM to care about #Pell & helping low income students.
Instead, the House is considering a #ShortTermPell bill NEXT WEEK that will exacerbate this shortfall & literally bankroll shady #forprofits & entirely online programs.
.Wisdom Cole highlights how incarcerated borrowers are not in a position to repay their student loans.
Also, borrowers relying on public assistance programs or those on a fixed income should qualify for debt relief due to financial hardship!
The $138 billion in relief granted to nearly 3.9 million Americans is the direct result of strategic organizing efforts that were made successful on the shoulders of our young people. This is what advocacy in action looks like. #CancelStudentDebt

A win is a win!
This week, the Biden Administration announced that U.S. Department of Education will convene a fourth Student Loan Debt Relief negotiated rulemaking session to develop a rule to provide relief to millions of student loan borrowers. #CancelStudentDebt
