He forgave a little over $150 billion so far
Most of his reform so far has focused more on making the current paths that existed more obtainable, ex: public service loan forgiveness. So he has made student loan forgiveness where you meet specific qualifications much better, which is very helpful, but not everyone qualifies.
Blanket student loan forgiveness hasn’t happened, because it was successfully blocked by the Republicans (after like 4 attempts). I assume this is referring to blanket forgiveness.
Could be wrong on all this, if anyone spots something incorrect just say it.
He should just declare it an official act, then it’s immune to prosecution
But the courts can still block it no?
I’ll vote for the D if you get mine forgiven.
Hes going to wait until just before the election so it’s fresh in the goldfish memory of America
You obviously haven’t been paying any attention.
Nah, they’re just proving their own point. They have goldfish memory and can’t remember far enough back to recall the prior loan forgiveness efforts.
After the court slap down, he was only able to help about 1/5th to 1/6th of the original audience.
That’s a lot of people who could stand to be reminded about what the GOP has blocked and what Harris would continue to push for.
Heard that before.
Why wait?
He’s been trying to do it multiple times since he’s been in office. I’ll let you guess which political party keeps striking it down.
Is it the one who wants to take public school money to make their private schools cheaper?
…to make their private schools cheaper?
Let’s describe this as it really is: they want to take public funds to use for religious indoctrination.
Religious indoctrination of a very specific sort.
Just wait til the madrasas start using public funds… See what happens to them.
He started forgiving student loan debt in August of 2022. The Republican Supreme Court keeps blocking him.
Bureaucracy takes time, unfortunately.
If they can take lessons learned and come up with a new package that even the current Supreme Court can’t strike down with that extra time, so much the better. (Sadly, I suspect that the current SC will just throw out jurisprudence entirely and give unsound decision after unsound decision to stop this, but if there’s a one in a million chance that they can find a line that even the current SC wouldn’t cross to stop this…)
Bureaucracy takes time, unfortunately.
Unless Bibi wants more weapons.
Oh look, a single issue broken record
If you don’t like me pointing out how priorities get fast tracked while things that aren’t priorities get slow walked, oh well.
Correct. There are more things going on than the one single thing you care about.
Yes, and the single issue you want silence on isn’t going away.
If shouldn’t be silenced. Never said that.
There are more things happening in the world though.
His most recent plan was blocked by Republicans in court this month. He has a new direction to try in Oct.
Thanks for this actual useful answer
