The Biden administration is canceling student loans for another 160,000 borrowers through a combination of existing programs.
The Education Department announced the latest round of cancellation on Wednesday, saying it will erase $7.7 billion in federal student loans. With the latest action, the administration said it has canceled $167 billion in student debt for nearly 5 million Americans through several programs.

The latest relief will go to borrowers in three categories who hit certain milestones that make them eligible for cancellation. It will go to 54,000 borrowers who are enrolled in Biden’s new income-driven repayment plan, along with 39,000 enrolled in earlier income-driven plans, and about 67,000 who are eligible through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
The problem with this debt forgiveness by a thousand cuts is spending hours researching it then finding out you arbitrarily don’t qualify because some highly technical reason.
This technocrated BS isn’t helping any but the lucky few that end up qualifying.
So just stop paying 🤷 I have over 80k and I haven’t paid anything in over a decade. I just don’t care. They can cancel it, or not, makes no difference to me, I’ll never pay anything.
BoTh SiDeS!!1!
As if he’s the president of Israel. Where have you people been while Yemen, Myanmar, Sudan, etc. all experience genocide?
Did we supply those countries with weapons to commit genocide?
I personally think it’s stupid to not vote for Biden but your argument doesn’t really make sense.
Awesome, so everyone who couldn’t afford to go to college now has to pay for the people who went to college making more money than the person paying off their debt. Yeah, that seems legit.
Did you hear how much was spent on the Iraq war? Maybe the 2008 debt crises? Maybe the PPP loan forgiveness? Surely you’ve heard of one that dwarfed those in comparison. Obvious troll is obvious
Yeah, so what that there’s been more money spent on other things. That has nothing to do with this. Why does that make it okay to take money from people who couldn’t afford to go to college and give it to people that went to college that have a higher income than the person they took it from?
You’re right , Its almost as if college should be free, along with healthcare and many others. Perhaps the rich should pay for it similar to other first world countries.
