    Trust me, as someone who’s aid was blocked by the Supreme Court, I am well aware of what’s happening with this.

    That said, why don’t we actually talk about what he was able to forgive before Republicans shut it down?

    https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/biden-harris-administration-approves-additional-428-billion-student-debt-relief-nearly-55000-public-service-workers-0

    brings the total loan forgiveness by the Administration to approximately $180 billion for nearly five million Americans, including $78 billion for 1,062,870 borrowers through PSLF.

    Pretty significant. Want to compare it to the President with the second most student loans forgiven? Good news, you don’t need to. The rest of the list is empty.

    I’m not one of those, “wah, other people got something and I didn’t” people. I’m glad people had their loans forgiven.
