08/22/2023 Elizabeth Warren tweets about Biden Administration's SAVE Plan
12/27/2021 Tweet - "This spring, I called Chris. We both graduated from the University of Houston (Go Cougars!). But my degree cost $50 a semester, and 8 years after graduating, he still owed $40,000. President Biden must #CancelStudentDebt to start to fix this broken system."
12/22/2021 Tweet - "I'm deeply grateful for everyone who joined this fight, called on the administration to extend the pause, and got this done. Raising your voice matters. It's how we make change, and it's how we're going to take the next step to #CancelStudentDebt."
11/03/2021 Tweet - "20 years after taking out student loans, the typical white borrower owes about 5% of their debt. The typical Black borrower owes about 95%. Because of the wealth gap & systemic discrimination, Black students go into more debt & have a harder time paying it. #CancelStudentDebt"
07/15/2021 Tweet - "I got my degree for $50 a semester at a public university. But since then, our government has hacked away at higher education funding and left students to pick up the bill. So we must #CancelStudentDebt and invest in free two- and four-year public college and technical school."
07/08/2021 Tweet - "About 40% of people with student loan debt weren't able to finish their degrees--so now they're stuck trying to pay college-graduate-sized bills on high-school-diploma-sized salaries. We're fighting to #CancelStudentDebt because people need relief."
06/27/2021 Tweet - "When we organize together, fight together, and persist together, we win together. We've all got to raise our voices and call on the Biden administration to extend the pause on student loan payments and #CancelStudentDebt."
06/22/2021 Tweet - "Our broken student debt system is saddling older Americans with an impossible burden. With one stroke of the pen, President Biden can--and must--deliver badly needed relief. #CancelStudentDebt"
02/17/2021 Tweet - "The president has the legal authority to cancel $50,000 of student loan debt, which will help close the racial wealth gap and benefit the 40% of borrowers who don't have a college degree. @ChuckSchumer and I will keep calling on the administration to make it happen."
07/22/2019 Tweet - "I warned about an economic crash years before the 2008 crisis, but the people in power wouldn't listen. Now I'm seeing serious warning signs again--and I'm calling for action before another crisis costs America's families their homes, jobs, and savings."
07/22/2019 Tweet - "Betsy DeVos is the worst education secretary we've ever had. We need someone who will actually fight for our students, which is why I've pledged to nominate a former public school teacher to lead @USEdGov in a Warren administration."
07/12/2019 Tweet - "Then we must go a step further: Universal free public college and the cancellation of student debt for 95% of Americans who carry it. My plan would fix the student loan debt crisis--and prevent another one from happening again."
