Jan. 14, 2023 Tweet - "Our student debt relief plan would allow more than 40 million Americans to breathe easier, getting folks who need it up to $20,000 in relief.

Nov. 22, 2022 Tweet - "I'm confident that our student debt relief plan is legal. But it's on hold because Republican officials want to block it.

Nov. 18, 2022 Tweet - "Unfair, hidden fees known as "junk fees" take real money out of the pockets of American families. Things like banking overdraft fees and excessive credit card late fees -- they add up. My Administration is making it clear that they're illegal." Pres. Joe Biden

Oct. 26, 2022 Tweet - "We're cracking down on hidden "junk" fees like surprise overdraft and deposit fees, credit card late fees, hidden hotel booking fees.
