If you have federal student debt, you need to log into and screenshot your payment history and loan details TODAY. The Biden administration *just* created a tracker on the website. We don't know how much longer the tracker will exist. You need proof.

The Department of Education had a way of keeping track of where student debtors were in their progress toward cancelation. They've now temporarily removed that progress counter. This means borrowers have no idea where they stand on their progress.

Conservatives spent years saying we shouldn’t cancel student debt because we should address the root of the problem: the price of college. But then they just made college more expensive in their budget bill and slashed pell grants. Total non-solution. A completely backward move.

We are about to see medical debt balances rise in this country at an astonishing rate. The question is, how do we, as medical debtors, leverage that individual debt into collective power as a real organizing and political constituency?.

The explosion of Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) budget is worth opposing on the grounds of deportation and assault on its own. But make no mistake — ICE will do much more than terrorize immigrants. This reconciliation bill is a huge bump to the national police state.

We cannot settle for any policy platforms that are not Medicare for All and College for All and taxing billionaires.

The response to the GOP gutting what semblance of a social safety net we have is to articulate a vision for 1. reparative 2. public goods that are 3. universal and 4. accessible to all. Defending the failed tuition/student loan system or for-profit healthcare system won't work.

This is a damning restructuring of our economy, social safety net and tax code which only serves the interest of wealthy CEOs and corporations, predatory for-profit universities, and fascists.

Poor and working families will die or be driven deeper into debt. Meanwhile, billionaires will amass more wealth in our already unequal society.

From cuts to Medicaid and other life saving healthcare programs to raising monthly student loan payments for tens of millions of Americans, this Trump bill will squeeze the remaining financial life out of the working class.

This sham of a bill says our nation’s highest priority is to extract cash from the bottom 99% and transfer it to the top 1% — and to incarcerate and deport as many as possible along the way.

Working people with student loans who voted for Trump: DJT has the executive power to cancel your student debt just like Biden did. Let’s be honest, you want that debt eliminated if it can be — as they did for PPP loans. Why should billionaires get richer and you get garnishment?.
