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. Republican officials are standing in the way. This Administration doesn't back down that easy--we're fighting back in the Supreme Court."

|
Tweet - "Republican officials are throwing up roadblocks in order to prevent middle-class families from getting the student debt relief they need. We are taking our case to the Supreme Court. Today, they announced that they'll hear it in February. We will keep fighting."

|
Tweet - "I'm confident that our student debt relief plan is legal. But it's on hold because Republican officials want to block it. That's why @SecCardona is extending the payment pause to no later than June 30, 2023, giving the Supreme Court time to hear the case in its current term."

Tweet - "There are 16 million Americans who will have their student debt relief applications approved by the Department of Education by the end of this week. They won't be able to get their relief because Republican officials are standing in the way."

Tweet - "Republican governors wrote me a letter saying student debt relief only helps the "elite few." Ted Cruz, the great senator from Texas, said it's for slackers who don't deserve relief. Who in the hell do they think they are?"

Tweet - "If you have student loan debt, you can apply for relief at http://StudentAid.gov. There are no forms to upload and no special log-in to remember. It takes less than five minutes."

|
Tweet - "The same Republicans in Congress who received hundreds of thousands -- even millions -- of dollars in pandemic relief are doing everything they can to oppose student loan debt relief for working Americans. I don't want to hear it."

|
Pres. Joe Biden
|
| Aug. 25, 2022
|
Tweet - "The burden of student loan debt is especially heavy for Black and Hispanic borrowers who on average have less family wealth to rely on to pay for college. And the pandemic only made things worse. This relief helps to narrow the racial wealth gap and advance racial equity."
